Installing The Network Cable; Connecting The Network Cable - MediaFORM Director Series Operator's Manual

Installing The Network Cable

In addition to operating as a standalone duplicator the DIRECTOR can be
connected to a network to receive files for pre-mastering or even be
remotely controlled by use of the DIRECTOR's advanced Application
Program Interface (SmartAPI). The unit comes equipped from the factory
with a 3COM 10/100BaseT Ethernet card for network attachment.
While networks are commonplace, their connection and interconnection
require specific expertise far beyond the scope of this manual. For our
Note:
purposes here, we will assume you either have expertise with networking
computers, or had your unit professionally installed by MediaFORM.

Connecting The Network Cable

• Connect a suitable patch cord to the RJ45 network port on the back of
the DIRECTOR unit. A Category 3 or better cable should be used for
10Base-T and Category 5 for 100Base-T network connection.
