The computers have two 1 Gb LAN ports that connect to an Ethernet
network by using CAT5 or CAT5e twisted-pair Ethernet cable with RJ45
connectors. See Hardware Features
ports are on each computer model.
IMPORTANT To help prevent performance degradation of Ethernet communication, do
not subject the computer or cables to extreme radiation or conducted
high-frequency noise.
In industrial environments, proper cable routing and power conditioning are
required for Ethernet communication. We recommend that you route all
Ethernet cabling through dedicated metal conduits. For improved
performance reliability, install ferrite bead filters at the cable ends.
