If
half-duplex
mode is used, refer to the 512-Bit Rule (see page 9).
•
If
full-duplex
mode is used, the 512-Bit Rule does not apply. The cable
lengths are constrained by the cable requirements (see pages 1 and 2).
1.
Locate or build IEEE 803.2™ compliant 10Base-T or 100Base-TX cables,
with RJ-45 connectors installed at both ends.
2.
Connect the RJ-45 connector at one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port on
the SBFTF10xx-11x media converter.
3.
