Its there to allow you to feed the unit with fiber, or to place it on an old thicknet run, or some other location where you had a 25xx /w transceiver.
If you want dual ethernet you buy a 1605, if you just need two ethernet ports you can place two 1601s back to back with a crossover cable and get the job done. If you're not worried about speed you can use a rollover RJ45 and connect AUX ports and run PPP ... but there are no aux on 16xx. Paul wrote: > > Hi ....
