(1) Ethersound
™ IN Port
This Port features and Ethercon connector. Always use this type of connector to secure
your Ethersound™ network from unwanted unplugs. This type of connector also ensures a
longer life to the internal RJ-45 contacts, because it preserves it from external traction.
Use this port as an Ethersound™ IN port when connecting to an Ethersound™ network.
(2) Ethersound
™ network Status LEDs

port shows that data is received from the IN port (when the top one, marked “Rx” blinks)
or are send through the IN port (when the bottom one, marked “Tx” blinks).
