1. INTRODUCTION This guide is intended for the system or network administrator responsible for installing and monitoring a TRANSITION Networks LANMaster T8 8-Port Ethernet Hub w/SIC Slot. A working knowledge of local area network (LAN) operations, including familiarity with communications protocols used on interconnected LANs, is assumed.
LANMaster T8 Specifications Dimensions 9.25" X 7.75" X 1.75" (235mm x 197mm x 45mm) Environment Temperature: 0-50°C, Humidity 10-90%, non condensing, Altitude 0-10,000 feet. Cable Specifications 10Base2 Cable Specifications The physical characteristics of the 10Base2 cable must meet or exceed IEEE 802.3 10Base2 specifications: •...
Connectors, Indicators and Switches CONNECTORS MDI SWITCH Connectors Eight (8) RJ-45 10BaseT connectors are located on the front of the LANMaster T8 Hub. One (1) power connector is located on the back of the LANMaster T8 Hub. NOTE: Slide-In cards (SICs) can provide optional additional fiber optic, male and female AUI, BNC, and RJ-45 connectors LEDs The Power LED indicates the LANMaster T8 Hub connection to...
4. OPERATION The LANMaster T8 8-Port Ethernet Hub w/SIC Slot normally requires no intervention beyond occasionally monitoring the Power and Port Indicator LEDs. Port Indicators Link/Partition Monitoring Power LED The green Power LED is illuminated when the LANMaster T8 8-Port Ethernet Hub w/SIC Slot is connected to external power.
Ensuring Compliance with 5-Segment Rule To conform to the Ethernet 802.3 specification, when connecting LANMaster T8 Hubs, the transmission path between any two Data Terminating Equipment (DTE) devices can consist of no more than five segments. NOTE: A segment is the cable connection between cable interfaces in an Ethernet LAN.
BNC Connector/10Base2 Connection The thinnet coaxial card (E-CX-SIC) provides a BNC connector to 10Base2. NOTE: Verify that coax cables on LANMaster T8 are terminated properly at both ends. (In a coax thinnet installation, the first and last device in a daisy-chain must be terminated with a 50 ohm terminator.) Additionally, the 10Base2 segment must be grounded to “earth ground”.
