Connecting to the Network

This section shows you how to connect the Gigabit Ethernet board to a network in the

following sections:

• “Connecting the Fiber-Optic Board” on page 12

• “Connecting the Copper Board” on page 13

Connecting the Fiber-Optic Board

To connect your ﬁber-optic Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express board to a network, insert the

LC connector on one end of the ﬁber-optic cable into the Gigabit Ethernet board, as

shown in Figure 2-1. Ensure that the connector is inserted completely into the jack. Then

insert the connector on the other end of the ﬁber-optic cable into the connector on the

Ethernet switch, or another computer system (as appropriate).

Note: If your network connects to an Ethernet switch, consult the operating manual for

the switch to ensure that the switch port is enabled and conﬁgured correctly.
