Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers

Ethernet Attachment Unit Interface (AUI)

The ARN Ethernet 10BASE-T base module, Ethernet expansion module, and Ethernet/tri-serial expansion modules contain a 10BASE-T standard 802.3 AUI DB-15 receptacle with a slide lock.

Note: The AUI is designed only for connection to a transceiver. Connecting the AUI directly to an AUI on an Ethernet station (without a transceiver) violates IEEE 802.3 standards.

Table C-3 shows the pin assignments for the standard 15-pin AUI receptacle on the ARN base or expansion module and identifies its pin locations.
