Connecting a Thin-Net Segment to an EPIM-C
To connect a thin-net segment to an EPIM-C:
1.
Set the Internal Termination Switch, located to the right of the port
and labeled TERM to:
•
The on position (•) if the thin-net segment connected directly to
the port will be internally terminated at the port.
•
The off position (o) if the thin-net segment will not be
terminated at the port or externally terminated.
2.
If the Internal Termination switch is in the On position, connect
the thin-net segment directly to the BNC port as shown in
Figure A-9.
3.
If the Internal Termination switch is in the Off position:
a.
Attach a BNC tee-connector to the BNC port on the module.
b.
Attach the thin-net segment to one of the female connectors on
the tee-connector.
