3.10Redundant Twisted-Pair Ethernet + COM2 Port Adapter

The Redundant TP Ethernet + COM2 Port card (GE Part No. 520-0218) provides two local area network connections with unique MAC addresses through Ethernet RJ-45 connectors. The LAN input routes to a three-port Ethernet switch and the WAN input routes to the PC/104-Plus Ethernet Module. The Ethernet switch can support a dual- redundancy network option on the D400. The card also provides an RS-232 DCE connection through a DB-9 connector. The Redundant TP Ethernet + COM2 Port card can only be installed in the NET1 slot (slot 11) on the D400.

Note: Use of the Redundant TP Ethernet + COM2 Port card requires the installation of the Dual Redundant Ethernet D400 CPU option, which includes the PC/104-Plus 10/100BaseT Ethernet module (GE Part No. 580-2717). The COM2 Port requires an external modem to provide dial-up functionality.

See sections “4.7 Network Connections” and “4.8 Modem Connections” for typical cable connections.
