    AT-810SL Multiport Transceiver Fanout User Manual Configuration Options As previously stated, the AT-810SL can be used to expand the number of allowable stations per transceiver in the following ways: As an independent network with up to eight DTEs (clients). Additional stations can be attached to an Ethernet coaxial cable segment which may have limited taps (MAUs) available.
  • Page 27: Installation

    Cable Length When in “Remote” mode of operation, ensure that your AT-810SL is within 50 meters (164 ft.) of the MAU. In either “Local” or “Remote” mode, DTEs must be located within 100 meters (328 ft.).
  • Page 28: Location

    1,024 per Network Location Once you have installed the cables and placed the AT-810SL where you want it, you can begin the actual connections. The unit may be installed in any location where the LEDs will be visible for monitoring and where there is adequate ventilation, temperature control and power connections.
  • Page 29: Operation

    Station Port is set to “Remote” mode of operation, access can be through an AUI cable and transceiver to an Ethernet coaxial cable or fiber optic cable. Once installed and set for your configuration, the AT-810SL will be transparent to both users and the network in general. Port Connectors Transceiver Port connectors as well as the Station Port connector are located on the back panel.
