Therefore, connection of several TPU2000 units on a communication network would yield the wiring as depicted
in Figure 3-9. TPU2000 and TPU2000R units may be interconnected on the same network as long as this signal
position difference is noted and signal polarity is followed.

Ethernet Connectivity
There are two interfaces on the Ethernet card type “E” option when it is inserted in the unit. The two interfaces
are available on the device are a 10 BASE T copper interface and a 10 BASE FL fiber optic interface. As
illustrated in Figure 3-10 a slide switch is available to enable one of the two interfaces on the card. Slide the
switch towards the card edge connectors to enable the FIBER OPTIC interface, slide the switch away from the
card edge connector to enable the COPPER interface.
