The Model PS105 Print Server has four 10BASE-T network ports and one BNC network port. The Model PS110 Print Server has one 10/100BASE-T network port that is autosensing and will support either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps connections, depending on the connected device. The 10/100BASE-T network port operates in half-duplex mode. Ports 2 through 4 on the Model PS104 Print Server are permanently configured for MDI-X wiring; port 1 can be set to MDI (Uplink) or MDI-X (Normal) by using the Normal/Uplink push button switch. The BNC port 1 on the Model PS105 Print Server is for network connections with BNC cabling. The BNC-T connection included in the package contents must be used with the coaxial cable for a 10BASE 2 connection to other network devices that have a BNC port. To terminate the connection on the last device in the network segment, you must use the BNC terminator, which is included in the package contents. The one network port on the Model PS110 Print Server is permanently configured for Uplink wiring. Refer to Table 2-1 for setting the Normal/Uplink push button switch and for selecting either a crossover or straight-through cable when connecting your print server to other devices. Table 2-1.
