The Ethernet ports on the backpanel allow you to connect the SpeedTouch™ to an
existing 10 or 100 Base-T Ethernet network or one (or more) computer(s) with
installed Ethernet card.
Using the SpeedTouch™ Ethernet switch, you can create a local Ethernet network of
up to four devices, without needing extra networking devices.

Managed Ethernet
switch
Your SpeedTouch™ intelligently switches data between the devices on your LAN,
using priority queuing to ensure that higher priority messages are delivered first and
in real-time. This feature maximizes your network performance.
The managed Ethernet switch allows you to configure a Virtual Local Area Network
(VLAN), group ports or isolate a port, configure secure channel connections, define
Quality of Service (QoS), and you can configure port mirroring, allowing monitoring
from one port to another.
You can configure the managed Ethernet switch manually using CLI (For more
information, see the SpeedTouch™ CLI Reference Guide) or on the expert web pages
(see
“5.5.3 Managed Switch” on page 158
).
In the SpeedTouch™ package, a yellow full-wired straight-through RJ-45/RJ-
45 Ethernet cable is included.
Please follow the installation instructions supplied with the external hub or
switch for connections and Ethernet cabling.
