Installation Instructions
Coax Transceiver for 10BASE5
Catalog Number 1785-TR10B5
The coax transceiver lets you connect a device with an AUI interface to a 10
Mbit/s CSMA/CD LAN (ISO/IEC 8802-3, IEEE 802.3, 10BASE5) coax
cable connection via this cable piercing tap.

Description
The 1785-TR10B5 coax transceiver can be connected to the AUI interface
of a device either directly or via an AUI cable. It is connected to the coax
cable by a coax interface.
The transceiver offers these functions according to IEEE 802.3 10BASE5:
receiving the data at the transceiver interface and sending them into the
coax cable
receiving the data from the coax cable and sending them to the
transceiver interface
indication via a yellow LED of data transmission and reception through
the coax cable
detection of data collisions in the network and reporting them to the
terminal equipment as well as indicating them by a red LED
ability to enable/disable the SQE test: at the end of every transmit
operation, a short collision signal (heart beat) approx. 1 µs long is sent to
monitor the electronics
jabber control and display: protecting the network from data packets that
are too long (> 20 ms)
