Remote Access via DCC.
Direct LAN access
(point-to-point)
The WaveStar CIT (LAN card) is connected to the LambdaUnite
™
MultiService Switch (MSS) via the “CIT” port of the user panel or
through a backplane connector (LAN I/O Panel). An unshielded
crossed
LAN cable CAT5 with 4-wire RJ-45/RJ-45 connectors must
be used for this connection.
The usage of shielded 100BaseT LAN cables is only allowed if the
applicable national safety requirements have been met by the user.
Otherwise, there is a risk of electrical shock and/or serious injury.
The following figure illustrates the Direct LAN Access
(Point-to-Point).
