Networking connections

You can connect Matrox 4Sight XV6 to your local area network (LAN), via Gigabit
Ethernet (1000 BaseT), or Fast Ethernet (100 BaseT). To do so, connect a network
cable to one of the two Gigabit Ethernet connectors, located on the back panel of
the chassis. The Ethernet connector on the left has an I210 network interface. The
Ethernet connector on the right has an I219-LM network interface.
The I219-LM Gigabit Ethernet connector provides Wake-on-Lan (WoL) and
Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) for remote management. To enable
the WoL feature, you must modify settings in your UEFI
to the ACPI configuration section and enable "PCIe Devices Power On".
To make the connection, use an appropriate network cable. The required type of
network cable depends on the type of connection:
Connection
Gigabit Ethernet
Fast Ethernet (100 Mbits/sec)
10 Mbits/sec
An RJ45 connector (shown below) must be attached to each end of the cable.
Each of the Gigabit Ethernet connectors on Matrox 4Sight XV6 has 2 LEDs to
convey network activity and speed information. For information on how to read
the LEDs, see the Light emitting diodes (LEDs) section, in Appendix B: Technical
reference.
1. On legacy computers, this was referred to as a BIOS, and in some menu items,
BIOS and UEFI are still used interchangeably.
Minimum category for network cable
Category 5e (CAT5e)/
