1.2.1 Local Ethernet Connection Setup
Local network
For Ethernet connectivity you will need at least:
• A computer that already has an Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) installed
•
If required, a hub or switch and the necessary connection cables
Ethernet cables
In the SpeedTouch™ package, a full-wired straight-through RJ45/RJ45 Ethernet cable,
hereafter referred to as a LAN cable, is included.
As all SpeedTouch™ variants feature 10/100Base-T auto-sensing MDI/MDI-X Ethernet
ports, you can use any type of full wired LAN cable to connect your equipment.
Standard wiring
procedure
Use the LAN cable provided to wire your computer's Ethernet port to (one of) the
SpeedTouch™'s Ethernet port(s).
In case of a single Ethernet port SpeedTouch™, you will need an external hub or switch
to connect multiple computers.
In case of a SpeedTouch™ switch, you can create a local Ethernet network of up to four
devices, without needing extra networking devices.
Ethernet link check
The SpeedTouch™ LED indicator(s) allow(s) you to check your Ethernet.
