Connecting StackMaster™ to Network

Ethernet™ connections between Stacks can be 10BaseT, 10Base2,
10Base5, and/or 10aseFL.

3.6.2

Ethernet™ Five-Segment Rule

When connecting StackMaster™ Stacks, the transmission path between
any two Data Terminating Equipment (DTE) devices can consist of no
more than five segments.

NOTE: A segment is the cable connection, including connectors, between
LAN devices.
