About Network Connectivity and Protocols 
The 2400 Family of terminals are data collection terminals with network 
support. The terminals communicate with a host computer or other serial 
device through the terminal’s serial port. The Ethernet terminal 
communicates with a host directly through the Ethernet network. The RF 
terminal also communicates with a host either through the Intermec 
Gateway or DCS 30X, or directly through the access points. The access 
point acts as a bridge between the Ethernet or wired network and the RF 
network.
