Connector Information

PCI 10/100Base-TX Card Twisted-Pair Connector

The same connector on the card is used for either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX operation. The operating mode is determined by the setting of the hub or switch to which the card is connected.

Connector Pin Usage for 10-Mbit/s Twisted-Pair Connector

Use unshielded twisted-pair cables that comply with the IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T standard.

Connector Pin Usage for 100-Mbit/s Twisted-Pair Connector

Use Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair cables that comply with the IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX standard.

Available HP Cables:

Cable Lengths:

The maximum length of the cable from the hub to each node for 100Base-TX is 100 meters. The cable must be category 5 UTP for 100Base-TX operation. For additional information on cable lengths and number of nodes supported by 10/100Base-TX, refer to the IEEE 802.3u Specification and Fast Ethernet, Dawn of a New Network by Howard W. Johnson (published 1996 by Prentice Hall PTR, Upper Saddle River, New Jersey 07458. Phone 800-382-3419. The ISBN number is 0-13-352643-7).

FCC Statement (For U.S.A.)

Federal Communications Commission Radio Frequency Interference Statement

	WARNING! This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that might cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy, and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may be required to correct the interference. Hewlett-Packard's system certification tests were conducted with HP-supported peripheral devices and cables, such as those received with your system. Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Hewlett-Packard could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

VCC I (Japan)

This equipment complies with the Class A category for information technology equipment based on the rules of Voluntary Control Council for Interference by Information Technology Equipment. When used in a residential area, radio interference may be caused. In this case, the user may be required to take appropriate corrective actions.
