Ethernet cable connection

The DocuColor supports Ethernet cabling of three types:
• Thinnet (thin coaxial Ethernet cable or 10Base 2)
Uses an external transceiver to attach to the AUI (attachment unit interface) connec-
tor on the Ethernet interface of the DocuColor.
• Thicknet (thick coaxial Ethernet cable or 10Base 5)
Connects directly to the AUI connector on the Ethernet interface of the DocuColor.
• Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP), defined as Category 5 (10BaseT or 100BaseT)
Uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector that plugs into the RJ-45 socket on the DocuColor.
The DocuColor 100BaseT option is of type 100BaseTX, also known as Fast
N :
OTE
Ethernet. If an Ethernet hub is used, it must be a 100BaseTX hub. Only Category 5
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling can be used with 100BaseTX. The term
"100BaseT" is used in this manual to refer to 100BaseTX.
