4.3 Network Connections (CPCI Products Only)
There is a single PCI/Ethernet chip which mates to the PCI Bus. This allows the host to connect directly to the
switch fabric without any external cables. This port can also be used as a second interface Ethernet in addition to
the host. The network interface runs at the 100Mbit full duplex into the switch fabric.
Note
: Connecting to another Ethernet HUB or SWITCH: A “crossover” cable must be used, or the
connection must be to the “uplink” port of the hub or switch.
