Connecting an Ethernet Cable to your Prestige
The Prestige supports two types of Ethernet connections. The
connection procedure differs for each one; follow the one that is
appropriate for your installation.
UTP
The UTP port is used to connect to a 10Base-T network. 10Base-T
networks use Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable and RJ-45
connectors that look like a bigger telephone plug with 8 pins. Two
types of gray Ethernet cables come with the package:
Straight through cable (white tag): Connect your Prestige to
a 10Base-T hub.
Crossover cable (red tag): Connect your Prestige to your
computer directly without a hub.
