CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
In another example, shown in Figure 1-4, a FOT-F3 (3) is connected to an MMAC (1) by an AUI cable (2) attached to an Intelligent Repeater Module (IRM) in the MMAC. A lengthy fiber optic link segment (4) of up to five kilometers runs from the FOT-F3 (3) to another FOT-F3 (5). The hardware connection is completed via another AUI cable (6) to a Cabletron Systems NBR-220 Ethernet Bridge (7) configured to provide an AUI interface. Through the bridge, the host device communicates with other devices on a larger Ethernet network attached to the AUI port of the bridge.
