About the Ethernet Cable

The yellow Ethernet cable is a crossover cable and is used to connect the Diva 2440 directly to a single computer. To connect the Diva 2440 to a network hub, you must use the included straight-through Ethernet cable. (This cable may be blue or grey.) You can also connect the yellow cable to the hub’s uplink port, if available.

However, the yellow cable can be used if your hub has a uplink port. Consult the documentation included with your hub for further information.
