The router splits the incoming Internet signal from the Internet Service Provider s (ISP) hardware device into eight 10/100 Mbps local ports. The control cabinet s PC controllers, UPS s SNMP / Web card, and the optional diagnostic camera s PoE (Power over Ethernet) device all connect to the router. Before you begin Kit contents Figure 1.
