'Yellow' is descriptive but does not identify the cable. A description of the ends of the cable would be helpful. However, if your computer is connected to the network then the yellow cable is unnecessary. It may be a management cable or an alternative connection. If your computer is not connected to the network then it is likely that the yellow cable is the rj-45 connection and that you need to install a network card for your computer.

Does a mainframe computer process faster than microcomputer?
There is a big difference between a personal computer and a mainframe. A personal computer is what you're probably use to; a computer that lets you access the internet, run programs, edit documents, etc. A mainframe, on the other hand, is a much more powerful computer that is usually connected to a network. This kind of computer provides services for other computers on the network. It may store files, manage access to network resources like printers, or perform heavy-duty computational tasks. Since mainframes are usually accessed over a network, they do not usually need a keyboard, mouse, or screen of their own.

Why two computers does not connected on a network while having a valid ip?
There are many reasons why communication may fail. For example (assuming a cabled network), there may be no connected cable, the network card may be damaged, or there may be a communication problem at higher levels. First, check to see whether the computer detects the cable. Then you might try a PING command, to see whether low-level communication works.
