Connecting to the AUI

The AUI interface provides broadband, baseband, fiber, and shielded twisted pair
(STP) support, depending on the transceiver and cables you use.

To attach an Ethernet AUI transceiver (drop) cable to the AUI connector on an
Ethernet module:

1.

Connect an Ethernet AUI drop cable to the interface labeled AUI
(

Figure 1-5

).

The cable must have a 15-position D-SUB receptacle.

Figure 1-5.

Connecting an AUI Cable

2.

Secure the AUI cable using the slide lock on the interface.

3.

Connect the other end of the cable to an Ethernet transceiver.

Caution:

Connecting the ARN AUI interface directly to the AUI interface on

an Ethernet station violates IEEE 802.3 standards. The AUI interface is
designed only for connection to a transceiver.
