This eBOX GPI8 port is just like an Ethernet port on a computer,
to connect it to a hub, switch or router, use a straight through cable.
To connect it to another eBOX GPI8 or computer, use a crossover
cable.
The eBOX GPI8 supports IEEE 802.3u clause 28 Auto-

duplex operation and chooses the highest performance settings.
In addition, four LEDs on the front panel that indicate various
operating conditions of the Ethernet port. These LEDs are:
• Link
• 100BaseT activity
• 10BaseT activity
