__________________________________________ Installation 2-31
Note: When you connect to an EtherTalk network, you must select
Phase 2. Select the phase on your Macintosh through the
Network CDEV (Control panel DEVice) under the Control
Panel. The Phase 2 icon usually has two double arrows.
Unshielded Twisted Pair (10BaseT) Connection
This configuration uses ordinary wiring for data transmission. UTP
requires a hub to which each device (for example the host computer
or the printer) is connected. Hubs can be linked together to form a
larger network.
A UTP cable looks like ordinary telephone wire. Each end has an
RJ-45 plug which looks like a slightly-larger version of the standard
telephone plug (fig. 2.21). The UTP cable should be a maximum of
328 ft. (100 m) in length. No cable terminators are necessary.
To connect your printer via the Ethernet port using the UTP method,
use the following procedure.
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Plug the transceiver’s Apple AUI connector (fig. 2.21) into the
Ethernet port on the printer.
3. Plug one end of the UTP cable into the RJ-45 socket on the
transceiver, and plug the other end into an RJ-45 socket on the
network’s hub.
4. Turn on the printer.
Now that your Macintosh and printer are connected, you may need to
set the zone name. For details, skip to “Setting the EtherTalk Zone
Name,” later in this chapter.
