Quick Installation Checklist
Setup
If you are experienced with AT-30xxTR multiport 10BASE-T repeaters, use
the following procedure. If you are not familiar with this type of repeater,
review this list and go on to the next chapter for more detailed installation
information.
1.
Carefully unpack the AT-30xxTR. Retain the packing materials until
satisfactory installation has been achieved.
2.
Place the AT-30xxTR in a location with adequate ventilation and power
receptacles.
3.
Apply power to the repeater by attaching the power cable.
4.
Test your unit’s connectivity, as described in “Testing,” below.
5.
If you are attaching the repeater to a network backbone, connect an
appropriate cable to either the AUI or BNC network port (you may use an
external transceiver for any other media connection to the AUI port, if
desired).
6.
Attach 10BASE-T UTP cables, with RJ45 connectors attached, to
10BASE-T station ports.
