Note:  connect TP media before connecting BNC media if power is on in the 

Media Converter unit.  See Section  3.5 Connecting Media above. 

Connect the ThinNet coax cable to the BNC connector on the Media Converter 

in the same manner as is done for any standard BNC connection.  Be sure that the BNC 

segment is properly terminated using a standard “T” connector. 

 

The LE1502A-R3 regular and LE1508A hardened BNC media converters are 

also equipped with “Terminator Switch” (

∝-50Ω), which can be used to eliminate the 

standard “T” connector by moving the “Terminator Switch” to the 50

Ω position.  See 

Section  4.5  BNC port, Internal Termination Switch

 for details.
