OVERVIEW

Need additional twisted-pair Type 3 ports in your Token Ring LAN? Choose the 16-Port Type 3 MAU. It functions as a wiring hub, so you can create a star wiring configuration from the main ring to individual Token Ring workstations.

Like the IBM 8228 MAUs, this MAU features Ring In (RI) and Ring Out (RO) connections on the front panel.

This MAU provides up to 16 additional ports for high- density applications and does so without the need for AC power and the use of a costly insertion tool for installation.

Since no AC power is required, the MAU provides flexibility when deciding where to locate the wiring installation, which may include non-air-conditioned areas, such as warehouses and closets.

A long-life lithium battery provides power to a circuit that allows the manual reset of all lobe circuits. Simply press a button to reset the ports. This eliminates the need for an insertion tool during installation.

Status LEDs are powered by the attaching Token Ring adapters and provide a visual indication of connect status.

The MAU automatically detects cable removal and wraps the RI or RO port, so there’s no network downtime!

Shielded RJ-45 connectors on the lobe ports provide support for UTP or STP 100-ohm cable. Use UTP cabling for

cheaper cabling costs. Or, use 100-ohm STP cabling for greater distances.

The MAU operates at 4 or 16 Mbps. No configuration switches are required.

Choose the mounting method you prefer—flush or recessed rackmount, wall- or shelf-mounted. Rack ears, along with a RI/RO loopback cable, are included with the MAU.
