Connecting the Remote Wake-Up Cable
This section describes how to connect the Remote Wake-Up
cable from the NIC to the PC motherboard.
Contact your PC manufacturer for the Remote
Wake-Up cable.
Connecting the Remote Wake-Up cable is optional.
Connect this cable only if you want to use this feature
and your PC has the following items:
■ 3-pin Remote Wake-Up connector on the
PC motherboard
■ 5-volt standby power supply unit rated at a minimum
of 375 milliamperes
■ BIOS that supports Remote Wake-Up
If your PC is compliant with PCI 2.2, Remote Wake-Up is
automatically enabled through the PCI bus. You do not
need to connect the Remote Wake-Up cable.
WARNING: Make sure that the PC power cord is unplugged.
Only properly trained and authorized personnel should
perform service. Contact your PC manufacturer for
information about safe service techniques.
To connect the Remote Wake-Up cable:
1 Make sure that the NIC is properly installed in a PCI slot.
2 Insert the Remote Wake-Up cable into the
RWU connector on the NIC (see Figure 3).
Twist the cable twice before attaching the cable to the PC.
3 Attach the other end of the cable to the connector on
the PC motherboard (see Figure 3).
Refer to your PC documentation if you need help locating
the connector.
