3 Plug the RJ-45 connector on the twisted-pair network cable into the RJ-45 port on the 

NIC backplate as shown in the figure.

4 Connect the other end of the network cable to an active network port.

The next step is to install the software, as described in “Installing Software” on page 20.

This section describes how to connect the Remote Wake-Up cable from the NIC to the PC 
motherboard. Connecting the Remote Wake-Up cable is optional. Connect this cable only 
if your NIC supports Remote Wake-Up and you want to use this feature.

NOTE: If you are installing multiple 3Com 10/100 PCI NICs in one computer 
running Windows, see the instructions in “Installing Multiple NICs” on page 31. If 
you are installing multiple 3Com 10/100 PCI NICs in one computer running 
NetWare, follow the instructions in “Installing Multiple Server NICs” on page 61.

NOTE: If your site network installation procedures require you to verify that 
installed hardware is functional before you install software, run the 
3C99XCFG.EXE DOS diagnostics program before installing the driver. This 
program is located on the 3Com EtherCD. For more information, see “Using the 
3Com DOS Configuration Program” on page 77.
