Connecting the AUI Port to a Fiber Backbone
Connecting an IEEE 802.3 10BASE-FL transceiver to the AUI port on the
Model 2813SA hub allows you to connect the Model 2813SA hub to a fiber
backbone. Figure 3-12 shows a typical network with two Model 2813SA hubs
connected to a fiber backbone. An AUI patch cable connects each Model
2813SA hub to a SynOptics Model 504A transceiver that has the SQE test
disabled. A fiber optic cable is connected between the two transceivers.
