Connections
Ki Pro Mini can be networked directly to a MacBook Pro or Mac using a single Ethernet
cable (straight or cross-over)—or it can be connected to a local area network (LAN).
In hard-wired configurations, Ki Pro Mini connects via its 10/100/1000 Base-TX Ethernet
connector. In a direct connection, you simply connect the Ki Pro Mini to an Ethernet-
equipped computer having a browser using a CAT-5 cable. If connecting via a LAN, you
then connect the Ki Pro Mini’s Ethernet connector to a hub or switch on the LAN. A LAN is
a shared network that includes other Ethernet devices all attached via a hub or digital
switch. LANs may be divided into zones separated by software or hardware routers.
