Cabling The 10Base-2 (Bnc) Module - 3Com CoreBuilder 2500 Getting Started Manual

Cabling the 10BASE-2 (BNC) Module

The 10BASE-2 (BNC) module contains eight
10BASE-2 ports that use BNC connectors. Because
each port is internally terminated, you do not need
to use external terminators when cabling the
module.
To cable the 10BASE-2 (BNC) module:
Attach the male end of the 10BASE-2 (BNC)
1
segment to the female BNC connector on the
module.
Each segment on the module is internally
terminated. When you connect a 10BASE-2 (BNC)
module to your network, the CoreBuilder 2500
system must be an end connection.
Ensure that the opposite end of the 10BASE-2
2
segment is also terminated.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the remaining module
3
ports.
Figure 4-14 shows the cabling of the 10BASE-2
(BNC) module using 10BASE-2 cabling.
