Apache Labs ANAN-100/D
Suitable routers or LAN Network switches:
A Full Duplex wired or wireless Ethernet Router with sufficient ports to connect the host computer and the
ANAN-100/D at 1000 baseT required to handle 80Mbps. Optional Full Duplex Ethernet 5 port switch with 1000
baseT Internet connectivity may be required if additional Ethernet ports are needed. Ethernet HUBS will NOT
work properly for this application.
Ethernet Connection
ANAN-100/D must be connected directly to a dedicated Ethernet port on the host PC or to a port on a suitable
Ethernet router or switch. Connection to a dedicated Ethernet port is shown above
Ethernet switch is shown above
For direct connection of ANAN-100/D to a dedicated Ethernet port, a CAT 5 Ethernet cable is
used. Note that a ‘crossover’ cable is not necessary.
IMPORTANT: The Ethernet switch must be capable of operating in full duplex mode at
1000 baseT. The initial release of ANAN-100/D FPGA code operates at 100 baseT, but future
releases will run at 1000 base-T. For this reason, a 100 baseT Ethernet switch may be used in the
interim, but if a new purchase is planned then a 1000 baseT switch is recommended.
An Ethernet “HUB” will not work properly and is not recommended.
