Exhibit 6-1

Single zone configuration (Zone 1), an eight-port hub configuration. Ports 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 may

access port 1, but only one at a time, under control of the commands Setup and Switch.

Exhibit 6-2

Dual-zone configuration (Zone 2 and Zone 3) as designated by the Setup and Switch commands. Each

zone is independent of the other, and so may be configured to run at different or the same speeds: 1 Gigabit or 2
Gigabit. Ports 2, 3 and 4 may access port 1, but only one at a time. Ports 6, 7 and 8 may access port 5, but only one at
a time.
