Phoneline + 10/100 USB Network Adapter
USB Cabling
The EtherFast 10/100 USB Network Adapter comes with one USB cable. One
end of the USB cable has a rectangular plug, which is called a type A con-
nector. The other end of the cable has a square plug, or a type B connector.
The USB cable’s type B end connects to the USB device—in this case the
USB Network Adapter. The type A end connects to a computer’s USB port.
The picture below shows two USB ports as they might be found on your
computer. Note the two USB icons above the port.
Modem and Fax Compatibility
If you have only one phone jack in a room and you want to use your modem
or fax, it is recommended that you purchase a telephone jack splitter. Plug
your telephone or fax into one of the splitter’s ports, and your HomeLink
USB Network Adapter into the other.
