Introduction 1-15

10BaseT This RJ45 port is used to provide a connection to a 10BaseT LAN. This socket allows direct connection between the AccessBuilder 500 and a single piece of equipment, as opposed to multi-point LAN connections using 10Base2 or 10Base5 cabling systems. The AccessBuilder 500 LAN port simulates the characteristics of a workstation port, which allows it to be directly connected to a LAN or network hub port as required.

If the LAN port is to be connected directly to a single PC or workstation, then you must use the crossover cable supplied with the unit to enable communication with your PC’s Ethernet adapter.

AUI The AUI port is used to provide a connection to an Ethernet network using any cabling media by means of a transceiver and AUI (drop) cable.

220-240 V~ or 100-120V~The electrical mains system input socket.
