2.4CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK

The HSIM-FE6 can be connected to the network using either fiber optic cable or twisted pair cable. The media chosen determines which type of FEPIM to be used. When using fiber optic cable, use either the FE-100FX or the FE-100F3. The FE-100FX is used for multimode fiber cable, and the FE-100F3 is used for single mode fiber cable. Refer to Appendix B for details on which FEPIM to use with the appropriate fiber optic cable. To connect to the network using fiber optic cable, refer to Section 2.4.1. When using twisted pair cabling, use the FE-100TX. To connect to the network using twisted pair cable, refer to Section 2.4.2.
