workstation or PC
The 10/100Base-T Ethernet port can connect to a single Ethernet-capable workstation or PC by means of a
cross over cable. Refer to
figure 8
to assemble a cross-connect cable that will connect between the NIC Ether-
net port in the workstation and the T-DAC 10/100Base-T Ethernet port.
