  • Page 7 passing packets across the CopperLink link that are meant for the remote peered LAN. Figure 1. Typical application The CopperLink/L modem and CopperLink/R modem work together to create a transparent extension between two peered Ethernet LANs. Figure 1 shows a typical point-to-point application.
  • Page 8: Installation

    Because the CopperLink Ethernet Extender requires no configuration, it can be installed quickly. If you are installing a standalone unit, refer to section 3.1 “Standalone unit installation”. Otherwise, refer to section 3.2 “Rack card installation”. Note If asymmetric transmission or line rates other than 12.5 Mbps are required (Model 2168 only), refer to section 4.0, “Configura- tion (Model 2168 Only)”...
  • Page 9: Rack Card Installation

    3.2 RACK CARD INSTALLATION The CopperLink Ethernet Extender rack card comprised a front card and a rear card.Do the following to install the cards into the rack chassis: 1. Slide the rear card into the back of the chassis along the metal rails. 2.
  • Page 10: Connecting The Twisted-Pair Line Interface

    6. Connect the Ethernet interface (refer to section 3.4, “Connecting the 10/100Base-T Ethernet Interface” on page 11). 3.3 CONNECTING THE TWISTED-PAIR LINE INTERFACE The CopperLink Ethernet Extender supports communication between two peer Ethernet LAN sites over a distance of up to 6,000 ft (1.83 km) over 24 AWG (0.5 mm) twisted-pair wire.
  • Page 11: Connecting The 10/100Base-T Ethernet Interface

    The terminal block connector on the CopperLink Ethernet Extender's twisted pair interface is polarity insensitive and is wired for a two-wire interface. The signal/pin relationships is shown in Figure 5. Figure 5. CopperLink Ethernet Extender twisted pair line interface. 3.4 CONNECTING THE 10/100BASE-T ETHERNET INTERFACE Ethernet The shielded RJ-45 port labeled is the 10/100Base-T interface.
  • Page 12: Connecting The 10/100Base-T Ethernet Port To A Hub

    Connecting the 10/100Base-T Ethernet Port to a Hub The CopperLink Ethernet Extender 10/100Base-T interface is configured as DTE (Data Terminal Equipment), just like a 10/100Base-T network interface card in a PC. Therefore, it “expects” to connect to a 10/100Base-T Hub using a straight-through RJ-45 cable. Figure 7 dia- grams the cable wiring for connecting the CopperLink Ethernet Extender to a 10/100Base-T hub.
  • Page 13 DC power (supplied via the power supply jack to the CopperLink Ether- net Extender) must meet the following requirements; DC power supplied must be regulated +5VDC ±5%, 1.0A minimum. Center pin is +5V. The barrel type plug has a 2.5/5.5/10mm I.D./O.D./Shaft Length dimensions. The CopperLink Ethernet Extender does not have a power switch, so it powers up as soon as it is plugged in.
  • Page 14: Configuration (Model 2168 Only)

    4.0 CONFIGURATION (MODEL 2168 ONLY) The CopperLink Ethernet Extender has eight DIP switches for configur- ing the unit for a wide variety of applications. This section describes switch locations and explains the different configurations. 4.1 CONFIGURING THE HARDWARE DIP SWITCHES Using a small flat-tip screwdriver, remove the protective cover located on the underside of the CopperLink Ethernet Extender (see Figure 9).

  • Page 16: Configuring Dip Switch S1

    4.2 CONFIGURING DIP SWITCH S1 DIP switch S1 is where you configure the CopperLink line rate, symmet- ric or asymmetric, Ethernet full auto negotiation capability (100Base-T full or half duplex, 10Base-T full or half duplex) or limited auto sense (only 100Base-T half duplex, 10Base-T full or half duplex). Switch S1-1: Ethernet Auto Sense Use switch S1-1 to configure the unit for full auto sense capability or lim- ited auto sense capability.

    Once the CopperLink Ethernet Extenders are properly installed, they should operate transparently. No user settings required. This section describes reading the LED status monitors. 5.1 POWER UP Before applying power to the CopperLink Ethernet Extender, please review section 3.5, “Connecting Power” on page 12 to verify that the unit is connected to the appropriate power source.
