The internal power supply is auto-ranging to handle any AC power type worldwide. Power input may range from 90 to 260 vac, with a frequency rating of 47 to 63 Hz. The unit is equipped with a rear mounted IEC-type recessed male AC power connector. (When shipped for use in areas other than 115 vac, a power cord will not be included). The 700X unit is convection cooled for silent operation.
2.3Magnum 700X - Repeater Port Modules (RPMs)
There are a total of six different RPM cards and each is designed with its own media cable connector type. A seventh module is used as a face plate when any front slot is not used.
The assortment of standard network connector types for RPMs includes BNC (ThinNet or 10BASE2), AUI (10BASE5 or ThickNet, DB-15 female for most transceiver connections), DTE (DB-15 male-AUI for direct connects), ST (Ethernet multi-mode Fiber ST), SC (Ethernet multi-mode Fiber SC), SMF (Ethernet single-mode Fiber) and RJ-45 (10BASE-T UTP and STP). They are shown in Figure 2.3. Each RPM is usually factory installed, or may be field installed by trained technicians as described in Section 3.0, Installation.

RPM-DTE, RPM-FST, RPM-FSC, RPM-TP, & PM-FP
Each of the individual RPMs are described in detail in this section.
2.3.1RPM-BNC
The Magnum RPM-BNC repeater module is equipped with a standard 10BASE2 coax connector. This RPM performs full IEEE 802.3 repeater functionality and is used for 10BASE2 ThinNet (commonly referred to as BNC) connections.
The RPM-BNC module is designed with a special switch -selectable internal
termination function that eliminates the need for a "tee" connector and a 50 ohm terminator. To
