A.1.4 EPIM-C

The EPIM-C supports thin-net coaxial cabling and is equipped with an
internal Cabletron Systems TMS-3 Transceiver. Use the TERM switch on
the front of the EPIM-C to set the internal 50 Ohm terminator. This
eliminates the need to connect the port to a tee-connector and terminator.
Figure A-4 shows the setting for the terminator switch.
Connector Type
BNC receptacle, with gold center contact, for use with BNC type tee-
connectors and RG-58 thin-net cable.
Grounding
For safety, only one end of a thin-net segment should be connected to
earth ground. Connection to earth ground at more than one point on the
segment may cause dangerous ground currents.
The BNC port of the Coaxial Interface Module is not connected to earth
ground.
