Connecting a WBK25 to the Ethernet
Connecting a WBK25 to the Ethernet
Introduction
The WBK25 connects directly to an Ethernet port on a PC or network hub via the unit’s built-in
10/100BaseT Ethernet interface. An Ethernet patch cable CA-242 (1.5 foot) or CA-242-7 (7 foot) cable is
used to make the connection.
CAUTION
Turn off power to the system devices and externally connected equipment before
connecting cables. Electric shock or damage to equipment can result even under low-
voltage conditions.
Take ESD precautions (packaging, proper handling, grounded wrist strap, etc.)
