Basic CobraNet Network Connections continued
Alternately, you can connect the CAB 4n CobraNet port directly to the CobraNet port on your
MM-DSP-cn card or Nion, bypassing the need for a switch. However, this type of direct
connection requires a "crossover" cable. (See p.18 to 19 for CAT 5 cable details.) It should be
emphasized that with this direct connection method, you cannot connect more than a single CAB
product to an MMDSP-cn card or Nion CM-1 card. This type of connection is normally used for
testing and troubleshooting and has limited advantages in actual system installations.
