• The RS-232 serial port connects to an ASCII terminal, any computer
with a serial port or an external device such as a touchpad. Commands
are sent from the terminal or computer to the Quadra.
• The Ethernet port (10/100BaseT) allows a Quadra system to be
connected to a local area network (LAN) or directly to a PC that is
properly equipped with a network card. Note that direct connection
requires the use of an Ethernet hub or Ethernet cross-over cable.
