2.5.1.Connecting the DRS to MFD8/12
Standalone Installation:
When the MFD8/12 and the Radar are the only Ethernet sensors, you can connect the Radar Ethernet connection directly to the back of the MFD8/12.
Network Installation:
As soon as multiple MFD8/12 or other Ethernet sensors (i.e. DFF1 Fish Finder, BBWX1 Sirius receiver, etc.) are used, the Radar Ethernet connection must be connected to an Ethernet Hub. In this case an Ethernet coupler can be used to extend the Ethernet part of the Siamese Cable
