Hi,

Is it possible to connect PING360 Sonar directly to one of the ports in ethernet switch, using the existent JST-GH connector (internally Ping 360 was set to ethernet)?

Thanks  
Luis

Yes, I have done this with a different switch, but it passes the data through and can be viewed in Ping Viewer.

Hi @lbentes,

Yes, it should work fine to connect the Ping360 (in ethernet mode) to the ethernet switch - we even have [a section on doing so](https://bluerobotics.com/learn/ping360-installation-guide-for-the-bluerov2/#wiring-connections-for-ethernet) in our [Ping360 Installation Guide for the BlueROV2](https://bluerobotics.com/learn/ping360-installation-guide-for-the-bluerov2/) 🙂
