STAR TOPOLOGY
•MAXIMUM coax segment to active hub is 600 meters (2000 feet) on
BUS TOPOLOGY
•Devices attached to coax bus must be located AT LEAST six
(6) feet apart.
•MAXIMUM coax bus length is 300 meters (1000 feet); minimum is 1.8 meters (6 feet).
•Device(s) attached to EACH END of bus must be terminated. NOTE: If the media converter is installed at one end of the bus, use the configuration switch to terminate the media converter.
CONFIGURATION SWITCH
NOTE: Set configuration switch (located on the side of media converter) according to site installation requirements:
Switch 1 | NOT USED |
|
Switch 2 | UP = OFF | Media converter TRANSFERS signal |
| DOWN = ON | Media converter TERMINATES signal. |
