MUM2-A2-GZ40-00
Connecting the UIM to the Network
Connect the network line according to the UIM model type installed in the
MUM2000-2. The following sections describe the general procedures. For further
information refer to the Installation Instructions for the particular UIM model.
UIM-1000T
Procedure
To connect a UIM-1000T to the network:
1. Plug your Ethernet cable into the RJ45 Ethernet port on the UIM-1000T
faceplate. The UIM-1000T connects with a straight-through Category 5
Enhanced (CAT5e) cable, usually to a switch or router on the remote end. The
maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters).
2. Verify the connection: solid illumination of the Lnk (link) LED on the
UIM-1000T faceplate indicates a 1 Gbps Ethernet uplink connection has been
established. The UIM-1000T Ethernet port is 1 Gbps, full duplex
auto-negotiating.
The remote device to which you are connecting must be set to 1 Gbps and full
duplex, or configured to auto-negotiate. A remote device that is configured to
auto-negotiate must still have 1 Gbps and full duplex capabilities in order to link
with the UIM-1000T.
UIM-10/100
Procedure
To connect a UIM-10/100 to the network:
1. Configure the remote device to which you are connecting to auto-negotiate (if
applicable) prior to establishing your Ethernet connection.
2. Plug your Ethernet cable into the RJ45 Ethernet port on the UIM-10/100
faceplate. The UIM-10/100 connects to a router or a PC with a straight-through
cable and to a hub or a switch with a crossover cable.
3. Verify the connection: solid illumination of the Lnk (link) LED on the
UIM-10/100 faceplate indicates an Ethernet uplink connection has been
established. The UIM-10/100 Ethernet port is 10/100 auto-negotiating.
