The Sun 4/110 has an automatic Ethernet/Thin-Ethernet selection
feature.

I add some part of the Sun 4100 Board Set Configuration Procedures:

"If your Ethernet cable is hooked up to a multiplexer box with less
than 30 milliamps on a +12V return, the Auto Select function allowing
you to connect either Ethernet or Cheapernet automatically will not
work. You should disable the Auto Select function by forcing
Ethernet. To do this, install jumper J1800."

The location of the jumper is D-3.
