Connecting to the LAN
The device provides up to four Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T) ports for connection to the LAN (e.g., computers, switches, and IP phones). These ports support half- and full-duplex modes, auto-negotiation, and straight or crossover cable detection.
The RJ-45 connector pinouts are described in the following table:
