|
Thin Coaxial Cable Installation
|
| Thin coaxial cable uses the BNC port on
the rear bracket. To make the connection, follow the steps described below. |
| Step 1 Make
sure the power to your computer is off to avoid damage to both the computer
and the network interface card. |
| Step 2 Connect
the T-connector onto the BNC port on the card, then connect one end of
the T-connector to the network cable. If the station is being added to
the middle of the network trunk cable, connect the other end of the T-connector
to the remainder of the trunk cable. If thestation is being added to the
end of the trunk cable, connect a 50-ohm terminator to the free end of
the T-connector.ˇ@ |

Twisted-Pair Cable Connection
|
| Twisted-Pair cable is used in conjunction
with the RJ-45 modular plug on the rear bracket. To make the connection,
perform the two steps described as follows. |
| Step 1 Make
sure the power to your computer is off to avoid damage to both the computer
and the Network interface card.ˇ@ |
| Step 2 Using
the RJ-45 plug and twisted-pair cable, connect the network interface card
to a 10BASE-T hub (concentrator). Note that the maximum cable length between
a 10BASE-T hub and any computer is 100 meters. |
| Max. Nodes per Concentrator: Depends
