Connecting Ethernet Interface

This section describes how to connect an Ethernet interface cable to the Ethernet port.

If you use an Ethernet interface cable that supports 1000BASE-T, set [Ethernet Speed] to [Auto Select:Enable 1Gbps] in [Interface Settings] in [System Settings].

Important

  • Use the following Ethernet cables.

    • When using 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T:

      Unshielded Twisted Pair Cable (UTP) or Shielded Twisted Pair Cable (STP) and Category type 5 or more

    • When using 1000BASE-T:

      Unshielded Twisted Pair Cable (UTP) or Shielded Twisted Pair Cable (STP) and Category type 5e or more

  • When you use IPv6, set [Effective Protocol] to [Active] in [Interface Settings] in [System Settings]. IPv6 is inactive as a factory default. When you enable IPv6, a link-local address is automatically set.

  • To use IPv6, consult your network administrator.

1Make sure the main power is switched off.

2Connect the Ethernet interface cable to the Ethernet port.
