Using the Coaxial Transceiver
The TRANSITION Networks Ethernet™ Coaxial Transceiver can be attached to a PC or hub, using an IEEE 802.3 AUI drop cable.
SQE ON: Set the SQE jumper to ON when the Transceiver is connected to a terminal device.
SQE OFF: Set the SQE jumper to OFF when the Transceiver is connected to a hub or repeater.

•Attach the AMP tap assembly to the transceiver assembly by
removing the two screws (shown) from the transceiver assembly, sliding the AMP tap assembly into the transceiver assembly, and then reinstalling the two screws.
If the Coaxial Transceiver fails, ask the following question:
1.Is the power LED on the Coaxial Transceiver illuminated?
NO
