Coax cable and twisted-pair cables can be combined. The following formula shows lengths:
(coax length) + (5 x twisted-pair length) < 1370 meters (4500 feet)
1. Locate the coax or twisted-pair SNA network cable.
2. Align the end of the SNA network cable with the Coax connector on the back of the
logic unit.
3. Connect the cable and secure it in place by turning the retaining ring clockwise until
it is tight.
