Ethernet Connection Requirements
The IPC’s 10-100 Ethernet interface directly supports 100BaseTx or 10BaseT twisted-pair
Ethernet. To connect the Ethernet interface to twisted-pair Ethernet cabling, you will need an
unshielded twisted-pair station cable that is connected to a 10BaseT-compatible twisted-pair
hub (for a transmit speed of 10 Mbps) or a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet hub (for a transmit speed of
100 Mbps).

v Note: Ethernet cables and cable connectors are not supplied with the IPC. Category 5
cabling is required for 100 BaseT operation. Please contact your reseller or your Compatible

If your twisted-pair hub is already in place, you can connect the server to an active network
without interrupting network activity. Simply plug the unshielded twisted-pair cable (that is
already connected to your Ethernet hub) into the RJ-45 Ethernet connector on the front of the
unit.
