2.4 Bonus Port Configuration Options - RPMs and BPMs
Magnum 1000 Workgroup Hubs may be configured with any Repeater Port
Module (RPM) or Bridge Port Module (BPM) in the rear bonus port. (For the 1008, this
is done by exchanging the basic AUI port for a Port Module). An RPM may be used to
provide connectivity, such as to a backbone, via any standard Ethernet media. A BPM
may be used to provide local-bridge isolation for the 1000 Workgroup Hub’s users.
RPMs are available for the following six Ethernet connector types: BNC
(ThinNet or 10BASE2), AUI (10BASE5 or ThickNet, DB-15 female for most
transceiver connections), DTE (DB-15 male-AUI for direct connects), ST (Ethernet
multi-mode Fiber ST), SMF (Ethernet single-mode Fiber), and RJ-45 (10BASE-T UTP
and STP). They are shown in Figure 2.4a.
