Example: Switch Connections (Site LAN)
This figure shows one way to connect instruments to a site LAN via an
Ethernet Hub or Switch.

Connect Instruments to Hub/Switch. If you use a hub or switch, use
standard CAT5 LAN cables to connect each instrument to the hub
or switch. See the hub/switch documentation for connections.

Turn Power ON. Apply power to the hub/switch (if not already ON) and
then to the instruments and verify proper power-on sequence. See the
