Question concerning SJA1105

[mootepe]

Dear Community,

i purchased the SJA1105 5-port automotive Ethernet Switch. My question is whether i need a media converter connected to the PC to send an ethernet frame or is it possible to send the frame via the USB-Connector?

Dear Tomas,

thank you for your quick response. I viewed the suggested media converters but is it possible to send ethernet frames via the USB-Connector (without an Media Converter)?

Best regards,
