Step 11
Connect the Ethernet and/or modem, ISDN, depending how you want to access DKVM -IP8
switch.
The rear side of DKVM -IP8 switch provides a RJ -45 connector for Ethernet. The connector is
used either for a 100 Mbps 100B ASE-TX connection or for a 10 Mbps 10BASE -T connection.
The adapter can sense the connection speed and will adjust to the appropriate operation mode
automatically.

Align the RJ-45 plug with the notch on the adapter’s connector and inser t it into the
adapter’s connector.
100 Mbps Connection
For 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet networks, DKVM -IP8 switch supports Category 5 UTP cabling.
To establish a 100 Mbps connection, the cable must be connected to a 100BASE -TX hub.
Make sure that the cable is wired appropriately for a standard 100BASE -TX adapter.
Align the RJ-45 plug with the notch on the adapter’s connector and insert it into the
adapter’s connector.
