2.4 TRANSCEIVER REQUIREMENTS
When you connect an external network segment, via a transceiver, to
the SEH with an EPIM-A, the following requirements must be met:
• The transceiver or Ethernet Device to which the module will be
connected must meet IEEE 802.3 standards, and/or Ethernet
Version 1.0 or Version 2.0 standards.
• The Signal Quality Error (SQE) test function on the
transceiver must be disabled if you connect it to a repeater or
to an Ethernet Version 1.0 device. In addition, some Version 2.0
equipment does not support the SQE test. Devices that do not
support SQE test interpret the SQE test pulse as a collision.
