Connecting a PA-2FEISL RJ-45 or SC Cable
Connecting a PA-2FEISL RJ-45 or SC Cable
To continue your PA-2FEISL port adapter installation, you must install the port adapter’s interface
cables. The following instructions apply to all supported platforms.
RJ-45 and SC-type fiber optic cables are not available from Cisco; they are available from commercial
cable vendors.
Use the following procedure to connect
RJ-45 or SC cables:
Step 1
If you have RJ-45 connections (PA-2FEISL-TX), attach the Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP)
cable directly to an RJ-45 port on the PA-2FEISL-TX. See (
.) The PA-2FEISL is an end station
device and not a repeater. You
must
connect the PA-2FEISL to a repeater, hub, or back-to-back to another
100-Mbps Fast Ethernet adapter.
If you have SC connections (PA-2FEISL-FX), attach the cable directly to an SC port on the
PA-2FEISL-FX. See (
.) Use either one duplex SC connector or two simplex SC connectors,
and observe the correct relationship between the receive (RX) and transmit (TX) ports on the
PA-2FEISL-FX and your repeater.
Note
Port adapters have a handle attached, but this handle is not shown to allow a full detailed view
of each port adapter’s faceplate.
