  • Page 8 CHAPTER 1: Specifications Isolation: 500 volts AC/DC between coax and twisted-pair sides Temperature Tolerance: 32 to 122˚F (0 to 50˚C) Humidity Tolerance: 5 to 95% noncondensing Power: From interfaces Size: MT255A-M (excluding cable pigtails), MT256A-F: 2.7"H x 1.7"W x 0.8"D (6.9 x 4.3 x 2 cm); MT257A: Rack chassis: 3.5"H x 19"W x 1.9"D (8.9 x 48.3 x 4.8 cm);...
  • Page 9: Introduction

    6" (15.2-cm) coaxial pigtails with male connectors that can plug into the female coaxial connectors of an existing device or termination. The MT256A-F model of the G.703 Adapter has a pair of female coaxial connectors that existing coaxial cables can be plugged into.
  • Page 10 The coaxial connectors on all of these models are the 1.6/5.6-mm types used extensively in telephone sites. On the twisted-pair side, each G.703 Adapter and each of the Balun Mate II’s port-card modules has a standard RJ-45 jack.
  • Page 11 • Balun Mate II can be mounted in 2U of vertical space in a 19" rack and can patch as many as sixteen terminations. Figures 2-1 and 2-2 on the next page show typical G.703 Adapter applications. The Balun Mate II will also be used for these kinds of applications.

  • Page 13: Configuration

    G.703 ADAPTERS AND BALUN MATE II 3. Configuration The G.703 Adapters and the Balun Mate II have only one user-settable configuration option. They express Transmit Data (TX) shield to the twisted-pair cabling on RJ-45 Pin 3 and Receive Data (RX) Shield on RJ-45 Pin 6.
  • Page 14 CHAPTER 3: Configuration installed settings, JP1 links RJ-45 Pin 3 to the coax TX shield, while JP2 links RJ-45 Pin 6 to the coax RX shield. To remove these jumpers in order to break these links, you’ll need to open the case of your Adapter or temporarily remove each port-card module from your Balun Mate II.
  • Page 15 G.703 ADAPTERS AND BALUN MATE II 3. Looking down at the top of the circuit board with the RJ-45 jack facing to the left, you should be able to see both jumpers in the middle of the board: JP1 toward the back and JP2 toward the front.
  • Page 16: Installation And Operation

    CHAPTER 4: Installation and Operation 4. Installation and Operation To connect a G.703 Adapter or Balun Mate II to your G.703 devices and/or networks, take these steps: 1. If you are using an MT255A-M Adapter, connect its coaxial pigtails to your device’s coaxial G.703 ports.
  • Page 17 G.703 ADAPTERS AND BALUN MATE II As soon as you connect the Adapter or Balun Mate II to a working G.703 device/network on both the coaxial and twisted-pair sides, it will begin operating immediately, drawing power from the interfaces and translating between them.
