Cabling and Termination

Use drop cable (612574-36R) and passive tap (M/N 57C380) to connect
the module to the coaxial network cable. This cable turns down and has
a ferrite to reduce EMI. This cable must be used in CE applications. You
can also use drop cable 612403-036R which points up.

The drop cable is a 3-foot long multiconductor cable with 9-pin D-shell
connectors at each end. Connect one end to the connector on the module
and the other end to the passive tap.

The passive tap has two BNC connectors for connection to the coaxial
cables and terminating loads.
