CorNet 10base Ethernet Adapter PnP ISA

UTP port (IEEE 802.3 10base-T) BNC port (IEEE 802.3 10base-2) AUI port (IEEE 802.3 10base-5) (bracket sold separately) NE2000 or PnP Jumperless or jumpered configuration Supports boot ROM Drivers for QNX, Netware, Windows, etc. Diagnostic LEDs for link and activity +5VDC, 0.5A maximum This industry standard continues to be popular and is a proven solution for basic local area networking. Ethernet's flexible media types and easy configuration make it a good choice for many applications. The CorNet Ethernet line is guaranteed to work with QNX.

DESCRIPTION

This is a 16-bit Ethernet Adapter for the ISA bus. It supports the NE2000 standard for jumpered or jumperless configuration. It also supports jumperless Plug and Play configuration. It has jacks for unshielded twisted pair or coax connections to the network. An optional AUI connector bracket is also available.

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Twisted Pair Cable Type

• Category 3 or better unshielded twisted pair

• From node to hub: 100m (325 ft)
• Total network span: 500m (1320 ft)
• Based on recommended maximum of 5 links and 4 repeaters between nodes.

• Thin coaxial cable: RG-58A/U 50ohm coaxial cable (0.2 inch diameter)

Other Coax Considerations
Maximum number of coax segments between nodes: 5
Maximum number of nodes per coax segment: 30
BNC 50ohm terminator required at each end of trunk and one must be grounded
