3.2 REAR CARD CONFIGURATION

The Model 1004ABRC has two interface card options: the 1Q11

(which comes equipped with two RJ-11 ports and two RJ-45 ports) and
the 1Q45 (which comes equipped with four RJ-45 ports). Figure 3
(below) illustrates these two different rear interface options.

Prior to installation, you should examine the rear card you have

selected and ensure that it is suitable for your application. Each rear
card is configured by setting straps on the PC board. Section 3.4.1
describes the strap locations and settings for each card.

3.2.1 REAR CARD STRAP SETTINGS

Figure 4 (below) shows the strap locations for the 1Q11 and the

1Q45 rear cards. These straps determine various grounding character-
istics for the RS-232 and twisted pair lines.

The table below provides a summary of the strap functions for

both of the rear cards. Following the table is a description of each
strap's function.

Line A Shield & Line B Shield (JB2 & JB4)

This strap pertains to the line interface. In the connected (closed)

position, the strap links RJ-11 pins 1 and 6 (RJ-45 pins 2 and 7) to
frame ground. These pins can be used as connections for the twisted
pair cable shield. In the open (disconnected) position, pins 1 and 6 (or
2 and 7) remain connected, but are “lifted” from frame ground.

JB2

Position 1&2 = Line A Shield Connected
Position 2&3 = No Shield

JB4

Position 1&2 = Line B Shield Connected
Position 2&3 = No Shield

SGND & FRGND (JB5)

In the connected (closed) position, this strap links signal ground

and frame ground. In the open (disconnected) position, pin 1 is “lifted”
from frame ground.

JB5

Position 1&2 = SGND and FRGND Connected
Position 2&3 = SGND and FRGND Not Connected
