host, regardless of the polarity of the twisted pair
segment’s receive link. If polarity is reversed, the
LANVIEW LNK (Link) LED will flash.
NOTE:
If you have a polarity mismatch, you should
remove the segment from the TPT and correct the problem.
This will make the segment compatible with a device that
does not have the Polarity Detection and Correction
feature.
LANVIEW LEDs
The TPT incorporates Cabletron Systems’ LANVIEW
diagnostic and monitoring system. LANVIEW gives a
visual indication of problems such as power failures,
collisions, and cable faults. LANVIEW can alert you to a
problem condition, and indicate the nature of the problem,
which streamlines troubleshooting.
Application
An Ethernet device, such as a workstation (1, Fig. 1-2)
connects to the TPT Transceiver (2) through the TPT AUI
port. An RJ-45 jack on the twisted pair segment (3)
connects to the RJ-45 port on the TPT Transceiver. The
twisted pair segment connected to the TPT can be attached
to 10BASE-T compliant products.
