Hardware
Requirements
The CP 1411 is a card for IBM-AT compatible PCs or PGs and re-
quires a 16-bit ISA slot for operation.

The CP 1411 is intended for operation in networks handling communi-
cation using the CSMA/CD medium access technique (Ethernet).

1.2 Network
Attachments
15-pin sub D
female connector
The 15-pin sub-D female connector with its slide locking mechanism is
intended both for connection of AUI transceiver cables (AUI Attach-
ment Unit Interface) as well as ITP cables (ITP - Industrial Twisted
Pair).
Switching between
AUI and ITP
If you use Siemens ITP cables, the module switches over between AUI
and ITP automatically.
RJ-45 Female
Connector
The RJ-45 connector is designed for the attachment of TP cables
(TP - Twisted Pair).
Caution in an
Industrial
Environment
In an industrial environment, only the AUI or ITP connectors should be
used due to their superior noise immunity.
Note that it is not possible to use both connectors at the same
time.
