Connecting an AUI Cable to an EPIM-A
To connect an EPIM-A to an external network segment:
1.
Check that the PWR LED on the EPIM-A is on. If the PWR LED is
not on, contact Cabletron Systems Technical Support.
2.
Attach an external transceiver to the network segment intended for
AUI port connection. For additional information, refer to the
applicable transceiver manual.
3.
Attach an AUI cable, no longer than 50 meters in length, to the
transceiver you connected to the network in step 2.
4.
Connect the AUI cable to the AUI port located on the EPIM-A. (See
Figure 3-15.)
Figure 3-15. The EPIM-A
Ensure that the external transceiver to which you connect the
EPIM-A does not have the Signal Quality Error (SQE or
“heartbeat”) test function enabled. The EPIM does not
operate if the transceiver has the SQE test function enabled.
Refer to the applicable transceiver manual for additional
information.
