Introduction
This manual tells you how to install the Compaq NC3131 Fast Ethernet NIC
and its optional upgrade modules. The modular capabilities of the NC3131
allow you to install or upgrade existing PCI servers with 10 or 100 Mb/s
Ethernet networks now while providing the ability to upgrade to 1 Gb/s
(Gigabit).
The NIC provides two 10Base-T/100Base-TX ports. Upgrade kits are available
to attach to the base NIC providing additional 10/100 or fiber ports.

Hardware Overview
The Compaq NC3131 Fast Ethernet NIC is a high performance, upgradeable
NIC with two fully integrated 10Base-T/100Base-TX networking chips. The
NIC supports emerging standards for system manageability and power
management, such as ACPI.
The Compaq NC3131 NIC is a sophisticated 64-bit PCI component with
enhanced scatter-gather bus-mastering capabilities. Its true 64-bit architecture
enables it to perform high-speed data transfers on the PCI bus using four DMA
channels. Its sophisticated microcode-based engine enables the controllers to
process high level commands and perform multiple operations without CPU
intervention. The NC3131 also operates in a standard 32-bit PCI slot and will
support both 32-bit and 64-bit systems.

NIC Installation
Before removing the cover of your computer, refer to the manufacturer’s
documentation for the proper method of installing a PCI card and safeguarding
you from electrical shock hazards.
!WARNING: To avoid the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment, consult the Safety information and Users Documentation
provided with your equipment before attempting the installation.
Many PCs are capable of producing energy levels that are considered
hazardous. Users should not remove enclosures nor should they bypass
the interlocks provided for removal of these hazardous conditions.
Installation of this NIC should be performed by individuals who are both
qualified in the servicing of computer equipment and trained in the
hazards associated with products capable of producing hazardous energy
levels.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can damage
components on the NIC. This can make the NIC inoperable.
To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing parts in static-safe
containers
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at
static-free workstations
Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their
containers
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry
Always properly ground yourself when touching a static-sensitive
component or assembly

MAC Address
The NIC’s 12-digit, hexadecimal Ethernet address is printed on a label placed
on the NIC. The Ethernet address is sometimes called the node address or the
MAC address.
Installing the NIC
Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation for the specific steps necessary to
safely install a PCI card in your computer.
1. Turn off the computer and unplug the power cord if the computer is not
PCI Hot Plug compliant. See Appendix D for more information about
PCI Hot Plug. Then remove its cover.
!WARNING: Turn off and unplug power to the computer before removing
its cover if it is not PCI Hot Plug compliant. Failure to do so could shock
you and may damage the NIC or computer.
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal
system components to cool before touching.
