The VDH2(8)-U13 ETU can be used with 10Base-2
and 10Base-2 cables. VDH2(8)-U13 ETU HUBs can
be cascaded using 10Base-2 cables. The 10Base-2
connector can also be used to connect the VDH2(8)-
U13 ETU to a LAN backbone. (Refer to Figure 5-29
VDH2(8)-U13 ETU Connections.)
✆
In these cases the port 8 is still used for core line.
The 10Base-2 cable interconnecting VDH2(8)-U13
ETUs must be greater than 0.5 meters. Care should
be taken so the 10Base-2 cables are neatly coiled.
When the 10Base-2 cables are connected to the
VDH2(8)-U13 BNC connector, a terminating plug
must be used if this is the last device on the cable.
Refer to Figure 5-28 VDH2(8)-U13 ETU.
✆
Using the 10Base-2 cables is the preferred method of
cascading VDH2(8)-U13 ETU hubs since it does not
reduce the quantity of station ports that the ETU
can provide.
