Connectors
The Midspan's front panel includes a Console port (RJ-45 connector) that
supports two communication types:
1. Standard DTE Ethernet connector only at the web managable version
of the midspan. This connector is a standard 10/100BaseTX port that
is used for remote management of the device (see Table 2-3).
For connecting the port to a switch output, use a straight-through
ethernet cable. for connecting the port directly to a PC port, use a
crossed-over ethernet cable.
