Setting Up And Connecting The Splashproof Tpu - Klein 5000 SERIES Operation And Maintenance Manual

Setting up and Connecting the Splashproof TPU

Setting up and connecting the Splashproof TPU is similar to that of the rack mount
TPU as described in APPENDIX D: "General Setup, Configuration and
Troubleshooting." However, the power connections are different. In addition,
because the LAN connector is internally wired through a crossover block to the
LAN connector of the CPU board, a crossover cable (not supplied) is required
instead of the supplied waterproof LAN cable when connecting the TPU to a local
area network using a hub or switch. Therefore, when connecting to a hub or
switch, connect a crossover cable to the LAN connector on the TPU and to the hub
or switch. When connecting directly to a computer, connect the supplied
waterproof LAN cable to the LAN connector on the TPU and to the computer.
