10BASE5 (Coaxial Cable)

5-9

Ethernet Network Requirements

Grounding

Each thin coaxial cable segment should be connected to earth ground at only one 
point. The connection to a ground should not be made through the BNC ports of a 
network device or T-connector unless the connection to the ground is made 
through the BNC terminator at the end of the cable. The grounding wire must be 
connected to the outer metal shield of the coaxial cable and should be no longer 
than 10 m (32.8 ft). If insulated, grounding wires should be green in adherence 
with accepted wiring practice.

Length

10BASE2 specifications allow thin coaxial cable segments to be no longer than 
185 m (606.7 ft). The use of longer cable segments can cause excessive error 
conditions and poor network operation. 

10BASE5 (Coaxial Cable)

The IEEE 802.3 10BASE5 specification details the use of thick coaxial cabling and 
Attachment Unit Interface (AUI) cables. If a thick coaxial cable network does not 
meet the requirements listed here, operation of the 10BASE5 networking 
components may be adversely affected.

Cable Type

Cabletron Systems 10BASE5 transceivers are designed to be connected to IEEE 
802.3-compliant 50 

 thick coaxial cable with a core gauge of 12 AWG. If 

Cabletron Systems products are connected to other types of thin coaxial cable, the 
10BASE5 network may be subject to errors and poor performance.

Termination

All 10BASE5 cables must be terminated at both ends of the cable with 50 

 

terminators. Any time an N-Type barrel connector or intrusive tap is removed 
from the thick coaxial cable segment, the segment or segments resulting from the 
cable split must be either reconnected or terminated at the resulting ends. Failure 
to terminate a thick coaxial cable segment can cause reflection of signal and the 
creation of excessive error conditions.
