4.Connect the remote end of the fiber optic cables to the 10BASE-FB Star Coupler, ONline Ethernet 10BASE-FB Module, or ONcore Ethernet 10BASE-FB Module ports. Ensure the transmit fiber at one end connects to a receive port at the other end.

Connecting the AUI Cable

Apply power to the transceiver by connecting it to:

■AUI transceiver cables

■Directly to AUI connectors coming from active IEEE 802.3/Ethernet nodes

Upon powerup, the transceiver status indicator and the port status indicator on the other unit (Star or Ethernet 10BASE-FB Module port) stops blinking and turns on solid.

Connect the 10BASE-FB Transceiver to an Ethernet device using proper AUI (transceiver) cables.
