Step 2. Mounting Media Cards to the NIC

The 4100-6078 Network Interface Card (NIC) uses media cards to connect to other NICs. This section describes how the media cards are
mounted onto NICs.
7.3.1 Media Card Mounting
NICs connect to each other via the three types of media cards. The types of media cards in the right and left ports are determined by the
type of wiring that is being used across cards.
Connect P1 on the wired media card, or J1 on the modem or fiber media cards, to P5 (the left port) on the NIC.
To connect a second media card to the same NIC, connect it as described above, but use P6 (the right port) on the NIC. Note that any two
types of media cards can be connected to the same NIC.
