Remote Wake-Up
Remote Wake-Up is the ability to remotely power-on a PC
for after-hours administration.
Remote Wake-Up support is enabled by connecting a
Remote Wake-Up cable from the NIC’s Remote Wake-Up
(RWU) connector to a 3-pin Remote Wake-Up connector
on the PC motherboard. See
“Connecting the Remote
Wake-Up Cable”
in
Chapter 2
for instructions.
