Connecting to 10Base2 Thin Ethernet Networks

The Trumpcard can only be connected to a 10Base2 Network by using the Media Access Module.

The following items are required to interconnect the Trumpcard to a 10Base2 thin coax Ethernet Network:

•A BNC coaxial T-connector.

•Coaxial cable(s) and a 50 ohm cable terminator if required.

To connect the Trumpcard to a 10Base2 Network connection using the Media Access Module, follow these steps:

•For the multi-function Trumpcard, the Ethernet connection is identified on the back of the PC Card; insert the PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter connector on the Media Access Module into the one marked Ethernet.

•Attach the T-connector to the BNC connector on the Media Access Module, align the notches in the T-connector with the posts on the BNC connector, push the connector in, and twist about one-quarter turn (until it is seated properly).

•Connect the coaxial cable(s) to the open ends of the T-connector to form a single Network segment. If at the end of the network segment, attach a 50 ohm cable terminator to the unused T-connector post.

Note:	The Trumpcard is keyed to go in one way only. If you feel resistance
	before the it is fully inserted, remove it, turn it over, and re-insert it.
