2. Connect one end of the network cable into the RJ-45 twisted-pair network
port.
For 10/100BASE-T Ethernet, the default interface port is the onboard
connector on the I/O board in slot 1. See Figure 2-7.

3. Enterprise 6000/5000 systems only: route the cable down along the right
mounting rail of the chassis.
Use tie wraps to secure the cable to the rail.
2.5 Connecting the System to the Network
1. Connect the network cable to a twisted-pair-to-transceiver interface box.
2. Connect the interface box with an appropriate cable to a network
transceiver.
Figure 2-8 shows a typical arrangement for connecting the system to an
Ethernet network.
3. For Ethernet cables, determine if the cable has N-type screw-on
connectors at the ends.
