Introduction
Ringdale’s Token Ring - Ethernet TCP/IP Router provides a
solution for connecting a single Token Ring device (through a
Media Access Unit) to an Ethernet network. This allows a device
with a Token Ring network connection (for example Printers,
Laptops and network peripherals) to be attached to an Ethernet
network.
Ethernet connection is made with an RJ-45 connector,
configured to allow a crossover cable to run to the 10baseT
Ethernet Network.
Token Ring connection is made using a type 1 cable on a 9-
way DB connector or type 3 cable on an RJ-45 connector. The
router has the ability to automatically sense which Token Ring
connection is used and the Token Ring speed, at either 4MHz
or 16MHz.
The router is configured and managed remotely using
Ringdale’s PeripheralVision
®
network management software
that can be installed on any Windows 95/98/ME/NT4/2000 PC
on the Token Ring network.
Follow the steps detailed in this manual for quick installation
of the Token Ring - Ethernet TCP/IP Router.
