This section describes installing the network interface cables.
Connecting the Ethernet ports
The Model 6081RC comes with three Ethernet ports. One Ethernet port is presented on the front panel via an
RJ-45 connector (
), and two internal Ethernet ports that connect to the PICMG 2.16 backplane for inter-
card communication. All Ethernet ports will autosense the correct speed (10 or 100 Mbps) of the connection and
automatically negotiate half or full-duplex operation. This section describes connecting the front panel Ethernet
port on the Model 6081RC to an Ethernet LAN via an Ethernet hub, switch, or workstation.
