Private Network Connections
Figure 2- 3 shows typical LAN cable connections for a private network.
Figure 2-3. Typical Private LAN Network Connections.
When making a direct connection between the L4400 instrument and the PC,
use the yellow LAN crossover cable provided with the instrument. Note, if
your computer supports Auto- MDIX or contains a LAN card with gigabit data
transfer rates, the (yellow) crossover cable is not required. A standard LAN
cable can be used instead. For private LAN networks that include a switch or
router, use standard LAN cables for network connections. Do not use the
crossover cable.
Once the LAN cables are connected, you can turn on the L4400 instrument(s).
