the unit through which all scanners in the rack may be connected to the network or the Ethernet
card in your PC or work station. This port is labeled TO HOST” (using an RJ-45 connector).
Similarly, every Model 9016, 9116, 9021, or 9022, 903x and 9046, has an Ethernet connecting
port using TCP/IP transmission protocol through their single circular connector.
