Can I connect a server directly to the Touch without a router?

Well, I was considering getting one of those really tiny eco server
things (they're silent too) to just sit on the shelf next to my Touch,
with a couple of hard drives plugged into it. 

I would rather not have a long ethernet cable trailing across the room
from my router (sure, it would work, but sending digital streams over
long wires does introduce errors and diminish sound quality) - but I
guess I could move the router nearer to the Touch, that's not
completely out of the question. I do want to keep the signal path as
short as possible. A wireless option is not recommended when playing
24/96 (high bitrate) files (this is stated in the Touch's own user
manual).
