Connecting to a Token Ring Interface

You can connect a token ring cable to any ARN base module or expansion module that contains a token ring interface option. Each of these interface options offers two token ring interface types -- an STP interface or a UTP interface.

Note: You can use only one token ring interface on an ARN base or expansion module at any time. For example, you can connect to either the STP interface or the UTP interface on a base module, but you cannot use both interfaces at the same time.

Connecting to an STP Token Ring Interface

To connect a token ring STP cable to the base module or expansion module token ring interface:

1.Attach the 9-pin D-SUB plug to the token ring STP interface (Figure 1-7).
