Ethernet
This gBOX port is just like Ethernet ports on a computer, to
connect it to a hub, switch or router, use a straight through cable.
To connect it to another gBOX or computer, use a crossover cable.
The gBOX supports IEEE 802.3u clause 28 Auto-Negotiation that
automatically senses the Ethernet port speed & duplex operation
and chooses the highest performance settings.
In addition, four LEDs on the front panel that indicate various
operating conditions of the Ethernet port. These LEDs are:
•
