Connecting the 3240 to a Mainframe

To connect a 3240 printer directly to an IBM mainframe, you need:
•
a coax adapter card.
•
a coaxial cable equivalent to IBM part number 2577672 or 1833108.
O
The maximum cable length allowed is 4920 feet (1500 meters). See the IBM
specification Installation and Assembly of Coaxial Cable and Accessories, part
number GA27-2805-4, for further information.
If you did not have the coax adapter card installed at the factory, you can install
the field-installable option (Intermec Part No. 067880) in the optional I/O board
port of your printer.
For help on cabling and communications, see the External Coax/Twinax Interface
Card User's Manual (Part No. 068453) that comes with the twinax adapter card.
