Epica DGX 32 Instruction Manual
Linking Epica DGX 32 to Enclosure with BNC Link Connector (Also BNC Daisy Chain)
An Epica DGX 32 enclosure can be linked to an enclosure with an Ethernet 10Base-2 (BNC) connector
(Modula, Modula CatPro, Epica-128, or Epica-256) by using a Media Converter, RJ-45 cable, and RG-58
coax cable. Additional 10Base-2 enclosures can be daisy-chained off the first enclosure.
Cable Length Requirements
Important: Attach 50-ohm termination connectors to the open ends of the T-connectors on the Media
Converter and on the last enclosure of the cable run.
To link an Epica DGX 32 to an enclosure with a BNC link connector:
1.
Insert the RJ-45 cable into the Epica DGX 32
enclosure’s Enc Link (RJ-45) port.
2.
Insert the other end of the cable into the Media Converter’s 10/100 (RJ-45) port.
3.
Fasten a T-connector to the Media Converter’s BNC connector.
4.
Attach an RG-58 coax cable to the T-connector.
5.
Add a 50-ohm termination connector to the open end of the T-connector.
6.
Fasten a T-connector to the Ethernet 10Base-2 / BNC link connector on the second enclosure’s CPU.
7.
Attach the open end of the RG-58 coax cable to the T-connector.
8.
If applicable – Attach additional enclosures with T-connectors and RG-58 coax cables.
9.
Add a 50-ohm termination connector to the open end of the T-connector on the last enclosure of the
cable run.
When power is applied, the Ethernet connector LEDs illuminate (see page 23).
