To link an Epica to an Epica (or to a Modula or 8Y-3000) using Ethernet
link connectors:
1. Fasten T-connectors to the Ethernet (BNC) ports on both enclosures.
2. Fasten the BNC connectors on each end of the RG-58 coax cable onto the
T-connectors on each enclosure.
3. Add 50-ohm termination connectors as shown in Figure 8.
4. For a multi-enclosure system, use T-connectors and RG-58 cable to link in a
daisy chain.
Important:
The total distance between the two end terminators in a
multi-enclosure system cannot exceed 500 ft. (152 m).
