IEEE 802.3 MICRO REPEATER Figure 1: AT-MR122T Front and Back Panels The AT-MR111T and AT-MR121T allow for connection of a UTP 10Base-T Ethernet segment to a thick (10Base5) segment, and the AT-MR112T and AT-MR122T allow for connection of a UTP 10Base-T Ethernet segment to a thin (l0Base2) coaxial segment.
The AT-MR113 and AT-MR123 connect AUI to AUl, and the AT-MR114 and AT-MR124 connect 10Base2 to AUI. The AUI will accept any IEEE 802.3 standard transceiver for 10Base5, 10Base2, 10Base-T, FOIRL, or a proprietary media connection provided the AUI meets the IEEE 802.3 standard. (Heartbeat should be disabled).
10Base-T (UTP) Connections Micro Repeaters with a UTP port support both straight-through (Figure 2) and crossed (Figure 3) wiring. The MDI/MDI-X two-position slide switch located near the RJ45 connector will allow use with either type of cable. If you are not sure of the UTP cable pinout, set the switch into the position that gives a valid Link indication for the UTP connection.
This switch allows for use with a UTP cable wired as straight-through (MDI interface) or wired with the TX pair crossed with the RX pair (MDI-X interface). That is, when connecting the micro repeater to a 10Base-T repeater or Hub, a straight-through cable could be used and the switch would be in the non-crossover position (MDI).
Switches Micro repeaters with an UTP RJ45 port (the AT-MR111T, AT-MR121T, AT-MR112T and AT-MR122T) have a switch for selecting the UTP crossover function. Models with a BNC port (the AT-MR112T, AT-MR122T, AT-MR114T, AT-MR124T, AT-MR115 and AT-MR125) have a switch for selecting or deselecting the internal 50Ω...

Troubleshooting Caution On a repeater with an external power supply, there's no power indication. 1. Check the AC power adapter at the AC receptacle and ensure that there is AC power available. 2. Also, ensure that the power plug at the micro repeater is properly seated. 3.

2. Check the media connections and cabling. Excessive collisions may be caused by a faulty cable or connection. Network loading can also cause excessive collisions.

IEEE 802.3 Quick Primer AUI "Drop" Cables AUI or "Drop" cables can be no longer than 50 meters (164 ft.) each. Attachments may be made only to the cable ends at the 15 pin D-sub connector. AUI "Drop" cables may have a maximum 257ns propagation delay for computing the worst case propagation delay of a cable system.
Thick (10Base5) Ethernet When configuring thick coax segments, IEEE 802.3 specifications allow 100 MAU attachments or less, spaced at multiples of 2.5 meters (8.2 ft.) measured accurately from the cable end (50 Ω terminator included). The thick cable segment cannot exceed 500 meters (1640 ft.) in length. Worst case "end-to-end" propagation delay of a thick coax segment is 2165 ns.
