NOTE
When connecting the Aculab card Ethernet interface to a 10/100BaseT Ethernet
network, the Ethernet adapter should be used.
NOTE
The 10/100BaseT interfaces should only be connected to an Ethernet switch.
CAUTION
Do not connect directly between the LAN interface and a Gigabit Ethernet switch
– always use the adapter supplied.
Cat 5 cabling is recommended for 100Base-T Ethernet connections. Higher
specification cabling such as Cat 5e, 6 or 6e may also be used.
