Connecting Twisted Pair Ethernet to N-type Coaxial Cable
Figure 2-6 shows an example of a typical network setup. The
SPARCserver 1000 system can be any server shown in this figure.
If termination is required, install a 50-ohm terminator in the unused
transceiver N connector or the end of the coaxial cable. Use a female double
N-type connector.

1. Finite lengths (as constrained by transmission line phenomena). Minimum length = 23.4M; maximum = 500M.
If cable falls shorter than one of these values, add cable to achieve next-highest value.

2. Transceivers are placed at intervals of 2.5 meters, or multiples of 2.5 meters along the Ethernet cable.
Example: transceivers are connected 2.5 meters apart, not 2.0 meters.
Example: transceivers are connected 15 meters apart (6 multiples of 2.5 meters), not 14.0 meters.
