General Descriptions
1.1 Introduction
The fiber Optic Medium Attachment Unit
provides the complete Attachment Unit
Interface (AUI) to fiber optic interface. It
connects to any standard IEEE802.3 Data
Terminal Equipment AUI connector, and
requires no configuration. It is connected
through a standard AUI cable or direct
connection to an Ethernet board or Ethernet
device unit via the AUI port. The MAU
includes the complete transmission, receiving,
and collision detection, jabber timer, link test
function as specified by the IEEE802.3 for use
in a 10Mbps CSMA/CD Ethernet on a duplex
fiber optic LAN system.
♦ Complies with the IEEE802.3 10Base-FL
standards.
♦ Supports up to 2000meters of duplex fiber
optic cable segment.
1.2 Features
♦ Compact design allows direct connection
to an Ethernet board of Ethernet device
unit via the AUI port.
♦ Two female ST connectors, one for
transmitting data and the other is for
receiving data.
♦ Link-integrity test for the automatic
checking of fiber lines
♦ Provides LEDs for a quick visual check
of individual link status, collision,
Transmit, and receive.
♦ Selectable end-of-packet SQE test
