1 OBaseT Twisted-Pair
Interconnection
The following items are required to in-
terconnect the network computers to
a 1 OBaseT twisted-pair networic
• A twisted-pair interface cable for
each computer
• A local concentrator for intercon-
necting computers or a wall jack
wired for 10BaseT twisted-pair
cable that leads to a concentrator
in a wiring closet.
1. Insert the modular plug at one end
of the interface cable into the .
RJ-45 twisted-pair wire networi(
port at the rear of the computer
2. Attach the other end of the inter-.
face cable to an input port of a
1 OBasel-compatible concentrator
l i n k Status
When the computer has been con-,
nected to a concentrator port and
both systems are powered on, verify
the connection by observing the green
link integrity LED indicator provided
above the twisted-pair network port
on the adapter board. If the link^
status light is off, it is assumed that
you are usingcoaxial and that port
will be enabled. When a valid connec-
tion exists, the link status LEDs at the
adapter board and at the concentrator
are lit. If the LEDs are not lit, and the
