If you are using Twisted-Pair Cabling
Amer.com recommends use of Category 5 EIA/TIA UL approved UTP
cable since it supports both the Fast Ethernet cabling rules and the
traditional Ethernet cabling rules. Category 5 UTP cable is required for
Fast Ethernet operation. The maximum cable run between the Network
Card and the supporting hub is 328 feet (100 meters). The cable must
be "straight" (not a "crossover" cable), with an RJ-45 plug at each end.
Make the network connection by plugging one end of the cable into the
telephone-style RJ-45 port of the NETWORK CARD, and the other end
into any available port of the supporting hub.

Software Installation
To complete the installation, you'll need to set up the network software
drivers that are provided for your particular network software package
(Windows 95, NT, etc).
On account of the great variety of network environments in which the
network card may be installed and used, and the frequency of
revisions in those network systems, the instructions for software
installation are given in the HELP directory on the Network Card
Software Program Driver Diskette.
Review the HELP directory for complete details on the installation of
your software package. These documents include simple how-to set
up software instructions, and troubleshooting tips.
*Check http://www.amer.com for newest
releases of drivers.
You are now ready to install the software support drivers.
