condition shall Patton Electronics be liable for any damages incurred
by the use of this product. These damages include, but are not limited
to, the following: lost profits, lost savings, and incidental or

RADIO AND TV INTERFERENCE
The Model 2100 generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if
not installed and used properly--that is, in strict accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions--may cause interference to radio and
television reception. The Model 2100 has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance
with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are
designed to provide reasonable protection from such interference in a
commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the Model 2100
does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by disconnecting the RS-232 interface, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures: moving the computing equipment away from the
receiver, re-orienting the receiving antenna, and/or plugging the
receiving equipment into a different AC outlet (such that the computing
equipment and receiver are on different branches).
SERVICE
All warranty and non-warranty repairs must be returned freight
prepaid and insured to Patton Electronics. All returns must have a
Return Materials Authorization number on the outside of the shipping
container. This number may be obtained from Patton Electronics

FEATURES
• Adapts an Ethernet AUI port to 10BaseT UTP interface
• Compatible with IEEE 802.3 specifications
• Supports distances to 300ft.
• Power derived from AUI interface--no AC power or batteries
required
• Plugs directly into the AUI (Attachment Unit Interface) port
• Seven LEDs monitor workstation interface status
• Easy to install and operate
DESCRIPTION
The Model 2100 connects directly to a DB-15 Ethernet AUI port
and converts the 802.5 Ethernet electrical signals into signals
compatible with the 802.3 twisted pair interface. The seven built-in LED
indicators monitor the status of the workstation and/or network
interface.
THEORY OF OPERATION
The Model 2100 receives data packets from the connected device
over the AUI cable and then converts it to a signal to be transmitted
over the twisted pair network. After the Model 2100 receives data
packets from the network, it then transmits this data back to the
workstation. The LED lights indicate power/ready and the proper
transmission conditions.
