Page 7: Chapter 1 Introduction
To install the CTP100T adapter, you should have a general working knowledge of Ethernet or IEEE 802.3 type data communications networks and their physical layer components. -
Page 8: Structure Of This Manual
Chapter 2, Installation Requirements, contains the network and hardware requirements to install the CTP100T adapter. Chapter 3, Installation, describes how to install the CTP100T on a flat surface and connect it to a network. Chapter 4, Testing and Troubleshooting, describes the CTP100T adapter installation checkout procedure, and the LANVIEW LEDs and their function. -
Page 9: Connections
RJ45 Port LANVIEW LEDs 1.3.1 Connections The CTP100T adapter has an RJ45 port and a BNC port. The twisted pair segment is connected to the CTP100T RJ45 port. The thin-net segment connects to the BNC port, either directly, if terminating the segment internally, or with a T-connector, if terminating the segment externally. -
Page 10: Chapter 1: Introduction
10BASE-T requirements as described in Chapter 2. An IEEE 802.3, 10BASE-2 compliant thin-net segment of up to 100 meters (330 feet) long can be connected to the CTP100T adapter. This segment can support up to 10 nodes when using 50 ohm, RG-58A/U thin-net coaxial cable. -
Page 11: Lanview Leds
1.3.5 LANVIEW LEDs The CTP100T adapter has five LANVIEW LEDs that monitor network activity (link, collision present, receive, and transmit) and power status. These LEDs are described in Table 1-1. They serve as a useful tool to quickly diagnose physical layer problems. -
Page 12: Application
For information on these products, refer to the appropriate installation guides. The CTP100T adapter may be used to connect a thin-net segment with up to 10 nodes to a 10BASE-T segment. For example, a TPMIM 22/24/32/34, MRXI, or a MiniMMAC could be connected to an existing unused twisted pair cable. - Page 13 Coaxial Backbone AUI Cable MMAC-3 with TPMIM-22 Figure 1-2.

Page 15: Chapter 2: Installation Requirements
CHAPTER 2 INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS This chapter lists the hardware and network requirements to install the CTP100T adapter on a network segment and the nodes to be attached to it. Note: These requirements along with the specifications described in Appendix A must be met to ensure satisfactory performance of the CTP100T adapter. - Page 16 Generally, the user does not need to be concerned about noise. If noise related data errors are suspected, it may be necessary to either reroute the cable or eliminate the source of the impulse noise. Page 2-2 CTP100T USER’S MANUAL...
