Using the LAN Port
An Ethernet cable may connect to the waterproof jack on the external LAN port of the MCD-4801.
Twist off the weather cap and connect a standard Ethernet cable. The MCD-4801 is normally set to
DHCP (Dynamic Routing), which means it will automatically issue an IP address to any computer
that connects to it. The LAN Port does provide POE (Power Over Ethernet) for devices that require
this feature.
A standard Ethernet cable is all that is needed. A crossover cable is not required.
