10BaseT/100BaseTx port that connects the reader to
your Ethernet network. The reader auto-negotiates with
the server to set the best data rate. This port uses MDI/
MDI-X auto-switching so you can connect either a
standard Ethernet cable or a crossover cable.
The Ethernet port also supports POE. To use POE you
need an 802.3at compliant power converter. For more
