4.2.1 Isolation
The shells of the 8P8C (RJ45) Ethernet ports are isolated from 0V of the module and the drive.
The ground tab on the MCi210 module is not required for electrical safety and is available only to
increase immunity from electrical noise.
4.2.2 Cabling
Standard UTP (unshielded twisted pair) or STP (shielded twisted pair) cables are supported. It is
recommended that a minimum specification CAT5e is used in new installations.
The Ethernet interface on the module supports the 'Auto cross-over detection', therefore a cross-
over cable is not required when connecting the Ethernet port on the module directly to the Ethernet
port of a PC.
4.2.3 Link / activity indicators
Each Ethernet port has a corresponding link / activity indicator on the topside of the module as
shown in Figure 4-1. Table 4-5 below details the different statuses of the indicators.
