Ethernet network using the AUI connector.
2. Select AUI as the Physical Connector parameter from the Modify/View
Interface Values menu.
Figure 3-4: Connecting the Probe to a 10MB/s Ethernet Network
The following types of network-specific MAUs are available for connecting to the
AUI port:
Fiber-Optic MAU (Agilent 28683A) - for fiber-optic cabling
10Base-2 MAU (Agilent 28641B) - for ThinLAN cabling
NOTE
If the SQE test is available on the MAU, disable it.
Connecting to 10Base-T/100Base-TX Telemetry Networks
You can connect the probe to the network either by connecting the RJ-45
connector to a 10Base-T/100Base-TX half-duplex or full-duplex network or by
connecting the AUI connector to a 10MB/s Ethernet network.
