Network Connections
Broad-band is the standard network connection and is required for BrightSpeed Series systems. (A
dial-up modem is optional.) A 1000 baseT high-speed network is desired, with 100 baseT network
service acceptable. Broad-band connections should use one of the following Category 5 patch
cables:
The CT system is connected to the network through the Console.
•
A patch cable (not to exceed 3.05 m (10 ft. ) should be provided by the customer, and it is used
to connect the console to a wall box. (See Notes on
Figure 9-5 )
• Some customer-site units may require cable duct-work or conduit to route connecting network
cables to the workstation, camera and console.
• The run from the hospital switch to the CT wall outlet must not exceed 88m (290 ft. ). Bandwidth
performance is degraded when the length reaches 91m (300 ft. ) or greater.
• For the optional modem: Two phone lines should be provided by the facility . One line is for
use with a modem and must be an analog line. The second line is a voice only line.
