1.3.3 Getting Started

Attention: Usually a straight RJ-45 could be applied if IAS-2000 is
connected to a hub/computer that supports automatic 7
such as the Access Point. However, after the Access Point hardware
reset, IAS-2000 should not be able to connect to Access Point while
connecting with a straight cable unless the cable was pulled out and
plug-in again. This scenario does NOT occur while using a crossover
cable.
