Connecting to other types of Ethernet networks
The Apple Ethernet AUI Adapter is a universal adapter that lets you connect
your Macintosh to less-common types of industry-standard Ethernet media,
such as thick coaxial or fiber-optic cable. If you are using the Apple Ethernet
AUI Adapter, you also need an Ethernet transceiver for your specific media
type; the transceiver must have a standard AUI port on it.
To connect your Macintosh to an Ethernet transceiver for other types of
Ethernet media:
1Shut down your Macintosh.
2Connect the Ethernet transceiver to the network following the instructions that came
with the transceiver.
3Plug the transceiver cable from the Ethernet transceiver into the standard AUI port on
the Apple Ethernet AUI Adapter.
