Connect to a Network
The computers have two 1 GB LAN ports that connect to an Ethernet network
by using CAT5 or CAT5e twisted-pair Ethernet cabling with RJ45 connectors.
The LAN 1 port supports AMT functionality for computers with the Intel i7
processor (Tier 3 models) that are configured for AMT.
The LAN 2 port supports VMWARE ESXi communication.
IMPORTANT
To prevent performance degradation of Ethernet communication, do not
subject the computer or cables to extreme radiation or conducted
high-frequency noise.
Proper cable routing and power conditioning is required for reliable Ethernet
communication in industrial environments. We recommend that you route all
Ethernet cabling through dedicated metal conduits. Installing ferrite bead
filters at the cable ends can also improve reliability.
IMPORTANT
Rockwell recommends selecting the Public Network option when prompted
during the set-up process to provide the most secure network connection.
However, the user is ultimately responsible for choosing the most appropriate
network security settings.
