CHAPTER 3
CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK
This chapter outlines the procedure for connecting the EMC38-12 to your
network.
3.1 CONNECTING A TWISTED PAIR SEGMENT
TO THE EMC38-12
The rear panel of the EMC38-12 has a 50-pin Champ connector. The
configuration outlined in this section explains how to attach a twisted pair
cable to the EMC38-12 and to a 10Base-T compliant ethernet device that
has a 50-pin Champ connector (e.g. Cabletron's ELM or TPRMIM).
You can also run a 50-pin feeder cable from the EMC38-12 to a punch
down block. The Champ connector supports twelve 10Base-T, twisted
pair segments.
Note: Refer to Appendix B for information about wiring the EMC38-12 to
a punch down block.
To connect the EMC38-12 to a 10Base-T compliant ethernet device:
1. Attach a 50-pin feeder cable to the Champ connector on the
EMC38-12 as shown in Figure 3-1.
