Chapter 2 - Installation

This chapter describes how to install the dual speed

Fast Ethernet PC Card into your notebook computer

and connect it to the network. The PC Card can con-

nect to either 100Mbps Fast Ethernet or 10Mbps

Ethernet over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable; and

can automatically sense and operate at either speed with-

out having to be manually reconfigured.

Please refer to Software Installation in Chapter 3 for

installing network drivers using menu driven installa-

tion utilities.

*: hardware installation must occur before driver in-

stallation is attempted.

Installing The MT10100ZLX/E

1. Insert the MT10100ZLX/E into the computers

PCMCIA slot with the 68-pin connector facing the

PCMCIA slot and the label facing up.

Hardware Installation

10-MultiMobile

2. Plug the 15 pin connector into the 15 pin socket of

the PC card. On the other end of the 15-pin cable,

leave the RJ-45 network cable exposed until the

LAN connection is made; hardware installation is

now complete. The MT10100ZLX/E is powered di-

rectly from the PC.

3. Connect the MT10100ZLX/E to the network (LAN)

using the bundled RJ-45 (8-pin) plug.

For operation in a 100Mbps (100Base-TX) Ethernet

network, a Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP)

cable should be used to connect between media cou-

pler and 100Mbps hub or switch.

For operation in a 10Mbps (10Base-T) Ethernet net-

work, a Category 3, 4or 5UTP cable could be used to

connect between the media coupler and a 10Mbps hub

or switch. Speak to your Network Administrator for

more details.

*: Removal of the MT10100ZLX/E from a notebook

computer is contingent upon notebook computer design.

Please refer to PC Card removal instruction specific to

your notebook computer.

LED Functions

The MT10100ZLX/E has three LEDs (Figure 2-2) that

report Ethernet Link and Network status.
