The LAN A port is normally assigned to the WAN (towards the VPN). Its IP address is the next
hop for the VPN.
The 10 Base-T/100 Base-T Fast Ethernet ports support IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u
specifications for the 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps transmission over Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP)
cables. Use Category-3 or Category-5 UTP cable with RJ-45 connectors to attach the 10/100
Base-T Ethernet LAN A port on the Evolution X1 Satellite Router chassis to the customer
provided LAN Hub or switch.
