100 Mbps Connection
For 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet networks, the adapter supports Cat-
egory 5 UTP cabling. To establish a valid 100 Mbps connection, the
cable must be connected to a 100BASE-TX hub.
1. Make sure that the plug on the cable is wired appropriately for a
standard 100BASE-TX adapter.
2. Align the RJ-45 plug on the end of the UTP cable with the notch
on the adapter's connector and insert it into the adapter connec-
tor as shown in Figure 2-4.

Note: The UTP wire pairs and configuration for 100BASE-TX cable
are identical to those for 10BASE-T cable when used with Category
5 UTP cable. The straight through connection should be made from
the adapter through the cable and connectors to the hub. Refer to
Appendix A.1 for RJ-45 connector pin assignments.
