Ethernet Extender Mode Settings
Ethernet Extender mode settings are made very simple by means of a
switch at the rear panel of the Ethernet Extender. The switch has two
positions for Ethernet Extender mode settings. Refer to the table below for
more details. One device must be set to Loc and the other to Rmt when two
devices are connected.

Connecting to Power
This Ethernet Extender is a plug-and-play device. Connect the supplied AC
to DC power adaptor to the receptacle on the rear panel of the Ethernet
Extender, and then attach the plug into a standard AC outlet.
