Cabling for 10Base-T Networks
Cabling for 10Base-T Networks
Two types of network cables may be connected to the Quad-BT PeerMaster adapter:
straight-through and crossover.
NOTE: Use straight-through cables when connecting
your adapter to an external 10Base-T concentrator hub.
Straight-Through
Use crossover cables to directly connect your adapter to another 10Base-T device, such as a workstation,
server, or another adapter. Crossover cables create dedicated segments . A dedicated segment is two point-to-point
devices connected to a dedicated link.
Crossover
Ensure that you do not externally join ports of adapters (using bridges, switches, or concentrators).
