The Ethernet service port connects to the front panel Ethernet connection through a standard
straight (non-crossover) Ethernet Patch Cable. The service technician should connect his PC to
the CPU card through this front panel connection with a standard straight Ethernet cable (see
Figure 9-5). If this connection is not available, you may plug directly into the CPU Card 
connector J1 to the PC with a standard straight Ethernet cable.
