Connecting the Transceiver to the Host
The ST-500 Transceiver is designed to operate with Ethernet Version
1.0, Version 2.0, and IEEE 802.3 compliant systems. However, each
version requires different wiring for the transceiver cable. Since cable
grounding is accomplished at the host end of the cable, the correct cable
must be used according to the requirements of the host equipment.
1.
Plug the female end of the transceiver cable into the 15-pin
connector on the side of the transceiver and slide the connector
lock to secure the connector.
2.
Use a tie-wrap to fasten the transceiver cable to the Ethernet
cable (see Figure 2-10). This provides a strain relief for the
transceiver cable connection.
3.
Attach the male end of the cable to the 15-pin connector on the
host system.
