Connecting to an Ethernet Network

An RJ-45 Ethernet network connector is included on your workstation.

Attaching a Network Cable to the RJ-45
Connector

Refer to the following illustration to connect a network cable to the RJ-45
connector.

IMPORTANT: If you are connecting to a 100BaseTX network, you must use
a Category 5 UTP cable. Also, for Remote Wakeup and Remote Shutdown to
function, the internal power cable for the network interface controller must
be connected to the system board. See the section “Remote Wakeup and
Remote Shutdown” in Chapter 3 for information on these features.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury
from electrical shock, remove all power cords to
completely disconnect power from the system before
attaching the network cable to the RJ-45 connector.
