RPM-TP (Twisted Pair)

The Magnum RPM-TP card supports Ethernet twisted pair segments of any

standard length. It is equipped with a single RJ-45 connector. The RJ-45 connector is

shielded to minimize

emissions and will

allow both unshielded

twisted pair (UTP) and

shielded twisted pair

(STP) segment

connections.

Magnum RPM-TP

The RPM-TP module is also equipped with a Media Dependent

Interface-Crossover (MDI-X) slide switch to allow for cascaded connections. This

feature eliminates the need for a special twisted pair crossover cable.

With the switch in the UP position, the RPM-TP port is used for cascaded and

up-link connections (i.e.: a connection to another repeater or hub or concentrator

typically.) When used for segments going to workstations and other user device

connections, the MDI-X switch should be in the DOWN position.

The RPM-TP will support 10BASE-T unshielded twisted pair wiring (UTP)

environments with maximum segment distances up to 100m (325 ft.), or shielded twisted

pair wiring (STP) of 150m (500 ft.). This module is designed with internal transceiver

functionality. The RPM-FST has LINK, PART, and RX LEDs.
