3.  Select an available CompactPCI slot to install the ZNYX NetBlaster adapter. Remove the 

slot cover from the front panel. Remove the corresponding cover from the slot on the rear 

I/O panel. 

 

4.  Insert the ZNYX adapter into the slot. Make certain that you push the adapter straight into 

the slot; the bracket and the slot must be properly aligned and the adapter fully seated. The 

bracket is well seated when it touches the system case up to the extraction levers. 

 

5.  Pull up on the extraction levers to finish seating the adapter, and secure the retention screws. 

 

6.  Insert the ZNYX rear transition module into the corresponding slot in the rear panel of the 

chassis. 

 

Note: Exercise extreme care when inserting the rear transition card into the chassis. 

Improper alignment of the rear transition card connector with the rear panel connector 

pins can damage the pins. 

 

Make certain that you push the adapter straight into the slot; the bracket and the slot must 
be properly aligned and the adapter fully seated. A good seat is achieved when the bracket 

touches the system case, up to the extraction levers. 

 

Rear transition modules are available with 

Type-B 

or 

Type-AB 

connectors. 

Type-AB 

connectors include guide pins to aid in properly aligning the rear transition module for 

insertion. A backplane that is only 

Type-B 

capable will not accept a 

Type-AB 

connector on 

the rear transition module.  

 

 

 

 

7.  Pull up on the extraction levers to finish seating the adapter and secure the retention screws. 

The LAN cable must be properly attached to a functioning network for the adapter to operate. 

100 Mbps connections require Category 5 cabling. here are two ways to connect the system using 

twisted pair: (1) system to system; (2) direct system to hub or switch. You can connect your 

adapter directly to another system with a null cable. A null cable, or crossover cable, “crosses 

over” transmit and receive pairs.  

 

You can connect your adapter directly to a hub or switch with an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) 

cable. Make certain that the cable length is within the minimum and maximum length restrictions 
for Ethernet, or you could experience signal or data loss.
