Introduction
1–3
IEEE 802.3/Ethernet (NI) Interfaces:
•
A single AUI/ThinWire (switch-selectable) port
•
Three independent AUI ports
Figure 1–2 shows the major assemblies and user interfaces in a typical DECbridge
500/600 series unit. Note that the number and type of interface connectors may differ
depending on the model:
•
DAS bridges have two FDDI connectors, SAS bridges have one FDDI con-
nector, and the DECbridge 600 model has no FDDI connector.
•
All DECbridge 500 series models have an AUI connector and a ThinWire
connector (switch-selectable) for the single IEEE 802.3/Ethernet interface.
The DECbridge 600 series models all have three AUI connectors.
NOTE
The DECbridge 510 shown in Figure 1–2 is representa-
tive of the DECbridge 500/600 series. However, the
number and type of interface connectors differs in the
various models, as described in the previous text.
