Connecting managed devices to a serial plus Ethernet option card
Use the upper row of serial ports (labeled with the serial symbol) to connect to device console
ports.
To provide for dedicated TCP/IP connectivity to these devices, and additional diagnostic
features of the appliance, connect each of the corresponding eight Ethernet ports in the lower
row of connectors to an available Ethernet port on a device – for example, if the device is
connected to the third serial port, its Ethernet connection must go to the third Ethernet port.

Note:
The appliance's Ethernet transceivers are configured for AutoMDIX, so it should not
require a crossover to connect this port to a switch, but when connecting to other devices such
as routers and firewalls, you may need to use the included crossover dongle.
The User's Guide for Uplogix Secure Remote Management Appliances includes
information on configuring the appliance's device ports to work with the connected devices.
