Installing an AUI or Fiber
Alternate Media Connector
To connect the repeater to a Thicknet backbone, use an AUI connector. To
connect the repeater to a 10Base-FL backbone, use a fiber connector. The AUI
and Fiber connectors require no jumper settings. To install either AUI or Fiber
connectors, follow these steps:
1. Power down the repeater if it is currently operating.
2. Remove the cover from the repeater's Media Expansion Port.
3. Insert the AMC's connector through the MEP opening, and carefully
push the 20-pin male connector into the receptacle on the repeater board
until the connector is secure.
4. Tighten the screws on the faceplate.
5. Restart the repeater. If you have connected the repeater properly, the link
status LED above each RJ-45 port turns ON momentarily, then turns
OFF.
