Thus, to have functional WOL, this three pin cable had to be connected from the card to the motherboard. This particular cable is the wake-on-LAN cable for early PCI slot implementations which could not signal WOL over the PCI pins. Here are some more interesting and varied NICs in my collection.įirst, lets start off with this image of a three pin to three pin “white” cable. This post is part of a two post series looking at the Fast Ethernet NICs in my collection, with some reminiscence of the legacy Fast Ethernet has left behind.
