Connecting the Network

This section describes how to connect the NPort Server to your network. There are

two ways to connect the NPort Server to an Ethernet Network. Be sure to connect to

network before power on so the network type can be detected correctly.

q Through 10Base2 (BNC) port

q Through 10BaseT (UTP) port

To decide which Ethernet connection to make, you need to know what type of your

network is being used at your site. Do not make both Ethernet connections. You may

choose from any of the above two connections. If you do not have an existing

network, you may select 10Base2 connection, which can save you from purchasing a

HUB.

10Base2 Connection

You must supply a coaxial cable with two T-connectors, one for your Ethernet card

and one for NPort Server.
