Connecting to a thin coaxial Ethernet network

Follow this procedure to connect your Macintosh to an Ethernet network that
uses thin coaxial cable. The hardware connection requires an Apple (or
Apple-compatible) thin coaxial transceiver and a thin coaxial cable.

IMPORTANT

You can connect your Macintosh anywhere along a network;

however, to do so requires that you temporarily disconnect the network,
which could disrupt existing network services and other people using the
network. Consult your network administrator before connecting your
computer to the network.

To connect your Macintosh to a thin coaxial network:

1

Shut down your Macintosh.

2

Attach one end of a thin coaxial cable to the last thin coaxial transceiver on the network.

3

Attach the other end of the thin coaxial cable to one of the connectors on the thin

coaxial transceiver.
