4.4 CONNECTING TRUNK CABLING
This section describes how to configure and install TPIMs to construct the
RI/RO ports for the MicroMMAC-T and also how to connect trunk cable
to the ports.
4.4.1 Describing TPIMs
TPIMs, shown in
Figure 4-5
, are hot swappable (that is, you do not have
to power down the MicroMMAC-T to install or remove TPIMs) port
interface modules designed for installation into the MicroMMAC-T’s
RI/RO receptacles. See
Section 4.4.2
for instructions on configuring
TPIMs for RI/RO application and installation instructions. See Appendix
B for TPIM pinouts and TPIM performance specifications.
Figure 4-5 TPIMs
Table 4-4
lists TPIMs designed for use with the MicroMMAC-T (and
other Token Ring connectivity products offered by Cabletron Systems).
