WebSwitch™ Users Manual
2.2.3 Network Connection
Connect the Ethernet port to a 10 Base T or 10/100 Base T Ethernet connection. This typically connects
to an Ethernet hub, switch, or router. For configuration, WebSwitch™ may be connected directly to the
Ethernet port on a computer using a “crossover” cable. Otherwise, for connection through a hub or
router, a standard “straight-through” cable should be used.
WebSwitch™ can be used indirectly on a wireless network. This is done by using a wireless Ethernet
bridge or a wireless router. The network connection of WebSwitch™ is connected to the wireless device
and the wireless device makes the connection to the wireless network.
Note: The wireless Ethernet bridge or router must be properly setup for the wireless network used. Refer
to the installation instructions that came with the wireless device.
