2.3.3 RPM-DTE
The Magnum RPM-DTE is a module equipped with a 15-pin male DTE connector
with lock posts. (The RPM-DTE is a mating connector for the RPM-AUI which has a 15-pin
female connector and slide locks. The pin
assignments of the two are the same). The
RPM-DTE card is designed to support direct
connections (no transceiver required) using
AUI drop cables to any device that is
equipped with an AUI port. Examples of
such devices include servers, routers,
bridges, hubs, and UNIX workstations. Magnum RPM-DTE
2.3.4 RPM-FST (Fiber ST, Twist-lock Connector)
The Magnum RPM-FST is a multi-mode fiber optic module equipped with a dual ST-
type connector. It functions as an IEEE 802.3 full repeater to support 10BASE-FL and FOIRL
network segments. When used for 10BASE-FL segments, this module supports fiber optic
transmission distances up to 2000m. For
FOIRL applications, it supports fiber
segments of up to 1000m in length. The
RPM-FST includes full transceiver
functionality and does not require an external
transceiver device. In addition to Partition
(PART) and Receive (RX) LEDs, a LINK
LED indicates proper connectivity with the
remote device. Magnum RPM-FST
NOTE: The RPM-FST circuit board contains a six pin jumper which controls the
intensity of the transmitted signal. By default, the jumper is placed across pins 5 & 6. The
jumper may be set as follows, to accommodate distances of up to 4 km:
