Connecting
XNIC-ENET to
the Network
The XNIC-ENET may be connected to your network using
Thinnet (10base2) cable with a BNC connector, or UTP
(Unshielded Twisted Pair, 10baseT) cable with an RJ-45
connector. Figure 2.1 shows the location of the ports on the
XNIC-ENET.

Caution
Never connect network cables to both the BNC and UTP ports
on the XNIC-ENET at the same time.
If you are connecting to an active Ethernet network, the
connection must be performed quickly to avoid interrupting
the network for a long period.
