Installing a FriendlyNet BNC

To install a FriendlyNet BNC Adapter:

Locate the AAUI connector on the system you’re connecting to

the Ethernet and plug in the adapter’s AAUI connector.

If the thin Ethernet cable does not have a T-connector or BNC

barrel connecting two cable segments, splice the cable with

the appropriate BNC hardware.

If the Ethernet cable does have a BNC barrel, remove it and re-

place it with a T-connector.

Attach the T-connector on the cable to the FriendlyNet BNC

Adapter as shown in Figure 3.

If the node is at the end of a network segment, make sure the

segment cable is terminated with a 50 ohm terminator at one

end of the T-connector.

∆

Note: Check with your network administrator before dis-

connecting the Ethernet cable. Other users must be

warned of the interruption of network operations. Even if

the network uses self-terminating media or connectors,

users downstream from the break will be affected.
