This section provides procedures to verify the performance and functionality
of the MTX100B network interface.
Connecting to a Network
The MTX100B has a LAN (10/100/1000 Base-T) port on the rear panel for
Ethernet communications.
This section provides instructions for connecting the MTX100B to a single PC or
a network and setting the network parameters for the LAN port.
Connecting the MTX100B
to your PC or MTS400
system
The MTX100B uses the rear-panel LAN port to communicate with a PC or an
MTS400 system. Use one of the following methods to connect the MTX100B to
your PC or MTS400:
If you are connecting the MTX100B directly to a single PC, use a crossover
Ethernet cable to connect between the LAN port on the MTX100B and the
Ethernet port on the PC. If you need to construct your own crossover cable,
the following

gure shows the pin connections to change on a straight cable
to produce a crossover cable.

If you are connecting the MTX100B to your local Ethernet network, use a
straight Ethernet cable to connect between the LAN port on the MTX100B
and the Ethernet hub port of your local network. By connecting to an Ethernet
network, you can access the MTX100B using any PC on the network.
