After the power is turned on, the cables are connected, and the ADP
subsystem is ready, the Ethernet link LEDs on both the appliance and on the
remote equipment illuminate to indicate the connection. As data is
transmitted, the activity LEDs on the appliance illuminate.
The IP2255 appliances can accommodate up to four eight-port 10/100
Ethernet NICs.
10/100 Ethernet NIC Connectors and Cables
The Ethernet connectors on the eight-port 10/100 Ethernet NIC are RJ-45
connectors. Use a straight-through cable to connect the NIC to a 10-Mbps or
100-Mbps hub or switch. Use a crossover cable to connect directly to a host.
Use IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T, 100Base-TX Cat 5 shielded twisted-pair,
full-duplex, or half-duplex cable.
