TCP/IPforSingleConnection–Linking the terminal to a single computer using TCP/IP requires Ethernet 10/100Base-T Crossover Cable. The cable can be used to cascade hubs or to connect Ethernet stations back-to-back without a hub. It works with both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.

TCP/IP for Network Connection – Linking the terminals to multiple computers using TCP/IP requires Ethernet 10/100Base-T Straight Thru Ca-ble or “whips”. The cable works with both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX, connecting a network interface card to a hub or network outlet.
