    The system comes with one MII Ethernet connector on the rear panel. Your system may also include one or more additional TPE connectors provided via PCI Ethernet interface cards.

  2. Plug the MII Ethernet transceiver into the MII Ethernet connector on the system rear panel.

  5. Connect the other end of the cable to the appropriate network device.

    There are a variety of connector and cabling options available for the AUI connection. See your network administrator if you need more information about how to connect to your network.

    Note -

    You can use only one of the main logic board Ethernet ports. You cannot connect to the main logic board's TPE and MII ports at the same time. For information about connecting to the TPE port, see "How to Attach a Twisted-Pair Ethernet (TPE) Cable".
