3.5 CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK
This section provides the procedures for connecting segments from the
network or other devices to the modules.
Ports 1 through 24 on the DLE22-MA and DLE32-MA have RJ45
connectors for twisted pair connections. Ports 1 through 24 on the
DLE23-MA and DLE33-MA have RJ21 connectors for twisted pair
connections. Ports 25 and 26 of the DLE2X-MA support DELTX-UI,
DELFX-UI, or DELF3-UI Fast Ethernet Interface Modules. The
DELTX-UI has an RJ45 connector for a Twisted P air cable connection.
The DELFX-UI has an SC style connector for a multimode fiber optic
cable connection. The DELF3-UI has an SC style connector for a single
mode fiber optic cable connection.
Refer to Section3.5.1 to make twisted pair connections to ports 1 through
24 of the DLE22-MA and DLE32-MA.
Refer to Section3.5.2 to make twisted pair connections to ports 1 through
24 of the DLE23-MA and DLE33-MA.
Refer to Section 3.5.3 to make a Twisted Pair connection to an
DELTX-UI.
Refer to Section 3.5.4 to make a fiber optic connection to an DELFX-UI
or DELF3-UI.
If the DLE2X-MA and DLE3X-MA are being installed in a
network using SmartTrunking, there are rules concerning the
network cable and port configurations that must be followed for
SmartTrunking to operate properly. Before connecting the
cables refer to Section 5.20.1, SmartTrunk Configuration Rules,
for the configuration information.
