Duo systems utilize 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet cable to connect to the Local
Area Network. Each system provides a 10/100/1000BaseT interface on the front panel for connection
to an Ethernet switch or hub using a straight-thru Ethernet cable. For direct connection to a PC
or other LAN device, the user should obtain a 10/100/1000BaseT crossover cable.
10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet cabling and crossover pinouts are provided in the Appendices.
