CHAPTER 5

CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK

This chapter outlines the procedure for connecting the SEH

to a network.

Ensure that the network meets the guidelines and requirements outlined in
Chapter 3, Installation Requirements and Specifications, before
installing the SEH100TX-22.

5.1

CONNECTING THE SEH100TX-22 TO THE
NETWORK

The procedure for connecting network segments to the SEH varies
depending on the media and ports being connected. Refer to the following
list and perform the procedure described in the subsections that apply to
connecting the SEH to a network:

Network Ports

Section 5.1.1

EPIM-100TX

Section 5.1.2

EPIM-100FX or EPIM-100FMB Section 5.1.3

Prior to connecting the network cabling, check the connectors for the
proper pinouts as shown in Chapter 3.

5.1.1

Connecting to Network Ports

Attach UTP segments to the RJ45 network ports on the front panel of the
SEH. Each RJ45 network port on the SEH incorporates a polarity
detection and correction feature. The polarity detection and correction
feature allows the SEH to pass data regardless of the polarity of the
twisted pair segment’s receive link. Operating in this condition is not
recommended; the segment should be removed from the network and
wired correctly by a technician.

Connect the twisted pair segments to the SEH as follows:

1. Plug the RJ45 connector from each twisted pair segment into the

desired network port on the SEH. See Figure 5-1.

2. Plug the RJ45 connector at the other end or the twisted pair segment

into the other device as appropriate.
