Figure A2-1 shows the minimum conguration with a single YFGW510, and Figure A2-2 shows
the YFGW510-redundant conguration employing the Duocast technology (each wireless eld
device communicates with two YFGW510s).

the following connection methods can be selected.
1. Metal network cable (100BASE-TX)
2. Optical ber network cable (100BASE-FX)
YFGW610 must be installed between YFGW510 and YFGW410 for optical ber network
connection to convert it to metal network connection.
3. Wireless LAN connection
Recommended access points for wireless LAN must be installed between YFGW510 and
YFGW410 for wireless LAN connection to convert it to metal network connection.
