Connecting to 10BaseT Twisted Pair Networks

The Trumpcard Ethernet LAN can be connected to a 10BaseT Network in one of two ways: directly connected through a cable attached to the Trumpcard if you have the 10BaseT version, or via the Media Access Module if you need to connect with 10Base2 cabling.

Connecting directly to the Trumpcard, the cable supplied has a male RJ-45 connector at one end that can be attached to an input port of a 10BaseT compatible concentrator; the external Media Access Module is not required. All the necessary interface is provided within the Trumpcard.

To direct connect the Trumpcard to a 10BaseT Network connection follow these steps:

Locate the twisted pair cable that has a male RJ-45 connector at one end and a PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter connector at the other.

For a multi-function Trumpcard, the Ethernet connection is identified on the back of the PC Card. Insert the PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter connector into the one marked Ethernet.

Connect the male RJ-45 connector into an input port of a 10BaseT compatible concentrator.
