Can you run this box from an ordinary network
connection ?

Absolutely *NOT* and damage will occur! (so says the
manual). The reason why they did it is so mugs like me
that want a longer cable will be able to easily make one.

What happens when your 'mate' plugs it into the network
card then ?

In fact, probably nothing, except that nothing functions properly.
Usually people building gear like this use the 100BTX voltage levels
and impedances, but do not use the same signals and protocols.

It would be very silly to have made it intentionally incompatible for
sure but stranger things have happened.
