Wired Ethernet LAN

Each computer on the 10/100Base-T Ethernet LAN requires an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) and driver

software installed.

Because the SBG1000 Ethernet ports support auto-MDIX, you can use straight-through or cross-over cable to

connect a hub, switch, or computer. Use category 5 cabling for all Ethernet connections.

The physical wiring arrangement has no connection to the logical network allocation of IP addresses.
