Overview

The UC-210T is a 10BaseT/100BaseTx auto-sensing USB 2.0 to Ethernet adapter that provides an external plug-and-play LAN connection for PCs, notebooks, laptops, and handheld computing devices that support the USB specification. The UC-210T contains an RJ-45 socket for the Ethernet LAN cable to plug into, and a USB type B port for a USB cable that connects to a PC’s USB port, or to a USB hub.

For further convenience - especially to users of notebooks, laptops, and handhelds - the UC-210T USB 2.0 Ethernet Adapter derives its operating power from the Universal Serial Bus itself, so no bulky external power supply needs to be taken along. And because it is a USB Specification 2.0 compliant device, it supports fast data transfer rates of up to 480Mbps, and energy-saving suspend and resume operations.

Components

Lan Cable

1.RJ-45 Socket

This LED lights when a link to the LAN has been established. It flashes when data is being transmitted between the computer and the LAN

MTransmission Speed

This dual colored LED lights Red when the transmission speed is 10Mbps, and lights Green when the transmission speed is 100Mbps

3.USB Cable

The B end of the cable plugs into the UC-210T; the A end of the cable plugs into the computer’s USB port (or a USB hub).

Installation

Preliminary Steps

1.Before you begin, make sure that the UC-210T is disconnected from the network, and that no other applications are running.

2.Follow along with the dialog boxes to complete the installation.

Note: In the dialog box that asks where to find the driver, be sure to specify your floppy disk drive (drive A:)

3.After the driver files have been copied, a dialog box appears to inform you that the installation has finished. Click Finish.

4.In the dialog box that comes up, you are asked if you want to restart the computer. Remove the driver disk; plug the LAN cable into the UC-210T’s RJ-45 socket; and Click Yes.

This completes the installation. If, for any reason, you disconnect the UC-210T from the computer and then reconnect it, allow the system up to two minutes (approximately), to recognize the reconnected adapter.
