Cable installation
Connecting the Ethernet ports
The DACS has a single 10/100 Ethernet interface for connection to your LAN (see figure 8). The Ethernet
port will autosense the correct speed of the local LAN and automatically negotiate half- or full-duplex opera-
tion. This section describes connecting the DACS to the Ethernet LAN via an Ethernet hub, switch, or work-
station.

Connecting the 10/100Base-T Ethernet port to an Ethernet switch or hub
The 10/100Base-T Ethernet port (see figure 8 on page 26) is designed to connect to an Ethernet switch or
hub. Connect a straight-through CAT-5 cable (wired as shown in figure 9) between the DACS and the hub/
switch.
