Interfaces and operation
The FX0-GPNT is equipped with an integrated 3-port switch for connection with the Ether-
net network. Two RJ-45 sockets are available for the connection. The switch functionality
allows the FX0-GPNT to be used for connection to another Ethernet component (e.g. con-
nection to a notebook) without having to interrupt the Ethernet connection to the network.
