EMC37-12 OVERVIEW
The EMC37-12 converts Ethernet IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T signals to
Ethernet IEEE 802.3 10BASE-2 signals. The rear panel has a 50-pin
CHAMP connector (RJ-71) that supports twelve twisted pair segments.
The front panel has twelve 10BASE-2 thin coax ports that use BNC type
connectors and RG-58 thin-net cable. Each 10BASE-2 port is equipped
with a switch to provide internal termination. Figure 1-1 shows the
EMC37-12 ports.
Each of the rear panel twisted pair ports has a corresponding thin-net port
on the front panel.
For example
: Twisted pair Port 1 converts signals to thin-net port 1,
twisted pair port 2 converts signals to thin-net port 2, etc.
