Task 2 Install the Network Switches
How to Install PC-Per-Station Network Switches
The switches provided with this kit include autodetect features that allow you to
plug MDI or MDIX cables in any of the ports.
Network connections 1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the controller processor board to the
network switch.
You can use an existing “crossover” cable (MDIX) or one of the straight-
through cables (MDI) provided with the kit.
2. Connect the network switches to the Ethernet network adapters.
3. Attach the “Controller-Dedicated Network” and the “General Data
Network” label to the appropriate network switch.
