User’s Guide and Reference 2 - 1 Hardware Installation Section Two Hardware Installation Unpack the Trumpcard Ethernet LAN hardware, and follow the steps listed below to install it on your computer. Instructions are included for both 10BaseT twisted-pair and 10Base2 thin coax Ethernet Network operations.
2 - 2 Trumpcard Ethernet LAN Section Two Installing the Trumpcard Ethernet LAN The Trumpcard Ethernet LAN can be inserted into a computer whether the power is ON or OFF. Follow these steps: • Orient the Trumpcard so that the 68-pin connector is next to the PCMCIA slot of the computer.
User’s Guide and Reference 2 - 3 Hardware Installation Direct 10BaseT Ethernet Connection Connecting to 10BaseT Twisted Pair Networks The Trumpcard Ethernet LAN can be connected to a 10BaseT Network.
2 - 4 Trumpcard Ethernet LAN Section Two The second method of connecting to a 10BaseT Network is via the Media Access Module. A female RJ-45 connector is provided on the Media Access Module for 10BaseT Network connections.
User’s Guide and Reference 2 - 5 Hardware Installation Interface Cabling and Pinout The direct connect 10BaseT cable provided with the Trumpcard is wired for direct connection to an Ethernet 10BaseT Concentrator.
2 - 6 Trumpcard Ethernet LAN Section Two Concentrators The Trumpcard, when used with 10BaseT Twisted-pair cable, must always connect to a concentrator. This results in a star-wired Network with the concentrator at the centre of the star. The Trumpcard is compatible with 10BaseT concentrators from a variety of vendors.
User’s Guide and Reference 2 - 7 Hardware Installation Connecting to 10Base2 Thin Ethernet Networks The Trumpcard can only be connected to a 10Base2 Network by using the Media Access Module. The following items are required to interconnect the Trumpcard to a 10Base2 thin coax Ethernet Network: • A BNC coaxial T-connector.
2 - 8 Trumpcard Ethernet LAN Section Two Thin Coax Ethernet Segment A thin coax Ethernet cable segment is the length of cable between terminations. The Trumpcard PC Card functions with 185 meter (607 foot with IEEE 10Base2) or 300 meter (984 foot, using the extended length option) cable segments.
User’s Guide and Reference 2 - 9 Hardware Installation If you are using extended length segments, all repeaters and transceivers must be designed for 300-meter operation. In addition, all LAN adapters must be configured to operate with the extended segment length.
