ETHERNET CABLE SPECIFICATIONS Maximum number of terminal devices on Ethernet network: 10Base5 Cable and Connector Specifications The physical characteristics of the 10Base5 cable must meet or exceed IEEE 802.3 10Base5 specifications. 10Base5 Cable Characteristics: Cable type: RG8 Solid Coaxial (ThickNet) Impedance: Capacitance: 26pF/ft...
1. INTRODUCTION This guide is intended for the system or network administrator responsible for installing and monitoring a TRANSITION Networks Ethernet™ 2-Port Multi Media Repeater. A working knowledge of local area network (LAN) operations, including familiarity with communications protocols used on interconnected LANs, is assumed.
Warranty Statement A. Five Year Warranty Transition Networks, Inc. (TN) warrants, for a period of five years, that TN products (with the exception of power supplies and fans that TN warrants for two years) will be free from defects in materials and workmanship, and will be in conformity with TN’s specifications. TN’s warranty on products manufactured by or assembled for TN in accordance with a customer’s specifications, is a five-year warranty that the goods conform to such specifications.
Connectors, Switches and Status Indicators Reset Switch SIC Slot 1 LEDs Power Supply Power LED Adapter Connector SIC Slot 1 SIC Slot 2 Connectors One (1) AUI connector is located on one side of the Multi Media Repeater. One (1) power supply adapter connector is located on the other side of the Multi Media Repeater.
4. OPERATION The Multi Media Repeater requires no intervention beyond occasionally monitoring the Power and Status LEDs. Monitoring Power LED The green Power LED is illuminated when the Multi Media Repeater is connected to power. Monitoring Status LEDs The Partition LED is illuminated when the Multi Media Repeater port registers thirty-one consecutive collisions.
Ensuring Correct Segment Number When connecting Pockets, the transmission path between any two Data Terminating Equipment (DTE) terminals can consist of no more than five segments. (A segment is the cable connection between cable interfaces in an Ethernet LAN.) NOTE: Up to one-hundred 10Base5 connections can be made in one segment.
Male AUI Connector/PC Connection The male AUI card (E-AUI-DC-SIC) provides a male AUI connector for connection, through an AUI drop cable, to a 10Base5 port on a powered PC. Fiber Optic Connector/10BaseFL Connection The fiber optic card (E-FRL-SIC) provides one set of transmit (TX) and receive (RX) ST connectors to fiber optic cable.
Unpacking the Multi Media Repeater The Multi Media Repeater packing contents should include the following: Item Part Number Multi Media Repeater E-MMR-2 Power Supply Adapter 3500, 3501, 3506, 3508, or 3510 (depending upon power configuration in country where installed) User’s Guide...
Twisted Pair Connector/10BaseT Connection The twisted pair card (E-TBT-SIC) provides an RJ-45 connector to 10BaseT. To connect 10BaseT Cable to Multi Media Repeater RJ-45 connectors: 1. Locate or build 10BaseT cables with the following characteristics: • 802.3 compliant (See page 18) •...
Installing Slide-In Cards CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge precautions when installing Slide-In Cards. Failure to observe this caution could result in circuit board failure. NOTE: Slide-in Cards can be hot-swapped. To install a Slide-In Card: 1. Determine if the Slide-In Cards has an SQE switch and, if so, verify that the SQE switch is in the OFF position: NOTE: SQE switches must be set to the following OFF positions:...
