5. MAINTENANCE

WARNING: DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, open and attempt to repair the LANMaster T8. Failure to observe this warning could result in personal injury or death from electrical shock.

NOTE: Failure to observe the above warning will immediately void the warranty.

Fault Isolation

If two network devices fail to communicate through the LANMaster T8, consider the following:

Are the LEDs described in the previous section functioning properly?

Do network devices have Link Integrity enabled?

Do network devices communicate when the LANMaster T8 is not installed between them?

Is flat or “silver satin” wire used in site internal wiring?

Are internal wiring patch cords, punch down blocks, and wall jacks properly pinned or configured?

Is the thinnet cable unbroken and properly connected?

Are network interface cards properly configured?
