Ensuring Correct Segment Number

Ethernet 802.3 specifications define segment number, as well as cable characteristics. (A segment is the cable connection between cable interfaces in an Ethernet LAN.)

When connecting 1004 Repeaters, the transmission path between any two Data Terminating Equipment (DTE) terminals can consist of no more than five segments.

To assign segment numbers to cable connections:

1.Determine the two terminals in the network which are separated by the greatest number of segments.

2.Assign a segment path between the terminals by labeling the cable connected to one of the terminals “segment 1” and the

segment connected to the other terminal “segment n” (n = total number of segments ≤ 5).

3.To verify that no segment paths contain more than n segments, assign segment paths and numbers to all other terminals.

Connecting Power to Model 1004 Repeater

To power ON the Model 1004 Repeater:

1.At Model 1004 Repeater back, locate the Unit power receptacle and associated fuse.

2.Verify that fuse is installed at correct setting for power source voltage.

NOTE: The installed fuse rating is indicated by the reading at lower right corner of fuse holder.
