Workstation Connections
To connect workstations or other equipment (such as
servers) directly to your Switch, you need:
1
One 10BASE-T,
100BASE-TX or
10/100BASE-TX adapter
card for each workstation.
3Com produce a range of
easy to install network
adapters, which provide
your workstation with a
10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX connection.
2
An operating system (for example, NetWare or Windows
95/98) with network support configured, running on
your workstations.
3
One suitable twisted pair cable for each workstation.
Twisted Pair (TP) Cables
Cables can be shielded (screened) or unshielded; we
recommend that you use shielded cable. Cables used for
100BASE-TX connections must be data grade (Category 5).
The maximum length you can use is 100m (328ft).
