Connecting the Print Server to a 10base2 thin Ethernet network
Connecting the XConnect II or XConnect II Lite-2
to a Thin Ethernet Network
To connect an XConnect II or XConnect II Lite-2 to a thin
Ethernet network, first check to see that switches 2 and 3
(10baseT/10base2) are in the ON position.
If you are installing the print server onto an existing network,
the "T" connector may already be installed on the cable. If
this is the case, simply connect the "T" connector to the BNC
connector on the print server's BNC connector as shown in
figure 2-5A (if the connection is in the middle of the thin

the thin Ethernet segment). This operation can be performed
without impacting the operation of the network.
If the "T" connector is not already installed, proceed as
