[. . . ] Since it is compatible with all 10Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet environments, Gigabit Ethernet provides a straightforward upgrade without wasting a company's existing investment in hardware, software, and trained personnel. The increased speed and extra bandwidth offered by Gigabit Ethernet is essential to coping with the network 2 bottlenecks that frequently develop as computers and their busses get faster and more users use applications that generate more traffic. Upgrading key components, such as your backbone and servers to Gigabit Ethernet can greatly improve network response times as well as significantly speed up the traffic between your subnets. Gigabit Ethernet enables TwistedPair cable connections to support video conferencing, complex imaging, and similar dataintensive applications. [. . . ] Open the shipping carton and carefully remove all items, ascertain that you have: One 32Bit Gigabit PCI Adapter One MultiLanguage Quick Installation Guide 9 One CDROM (Driver & User's Guide) If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement. Installing the Gigabit Ethernet Card 1. Insert the CDROM to your CDROM drive and once the Autorun window appears, select Install Driver option to start the installation. Follow the instructions on your desktop and once the driver installation is completed, please shut down the computer, unplugs its power cord, and remove the chassis cover. Insert the contact edge of the Gigabit Ethernet card into the connector of any available PCI Bus Master 10 expansion slot. Press the card firmly into the connector such that the card's contacts are fully seated in the connector, this card can put either in 32bit or 64bit PCI slot, but it is recommended that the card to put in the 64bit PCI slot to have the maximum performance. Install the bracket screw and secure the card to the computer chassis. If the BIOS section of your computer's boot program is PlugandPlay compliant, then at powerup the BIOS will automatically configure any newly installed the Gigabit Ethernet Card. NOTE: Due to a fault in some PlugnPlay BIOS programs, it happens occasionally that a newly installed adapter is assigned an Interrupt Number which is already assigned to another device. In such a case, the conflict of Interrupt Number will cause faults in the behavior of both devices. Then it is necessary to run the CMOS Setup utility, and manually assign a nonconflicting Interrupt Number. 11 Connecting the Network Cable Four pair of Cat. 5 UTP or STP cable with RJ45 connector is required for the 32bit PCI 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Card. You can use standard or crossover cable to connect the switch MDI X or MDIII port, because the 32bit PCI 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Card will adjust the correct signal automatically. 12 L ED I N D I C A T O R S Two LED indicators: Link, Activity. Link Indicator This indicator lights green when the Gigabit Card is connects to 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Network.
