Physical Description
This section provides a physical description of the gateway modules and their corresponding RTMs.
Gateway Module
The gateway module has a 10/100BaseT Ethernet port on the front panel that uses an RJ-45 connector
to connect to the network. There is an asynchronous, 9-pin serial port that you can use with a
hyperterminal program to configure and monitor the module.
Figure 2-1 shows the front panel components of the gateway module. Table 2-1 describes these
components.
