Fiber optic cable specifications for E-FRL-SIC option
Recommended fiber optic cable:
62.5/125 µm multimode fiber
The following Fiber optic cable can be used:
100/140 µm multimode fiber
85/µm multimode fiber
50/125 µm multimode fiber
Coax cable RG-58 specifications for E-CX-SIC option
Coax type:   Coax RG-58 thin-net cable, 50 ohms.  Cable
must meet the Ethernet IEEE 802.3 specif-
ication for a thin coax segment.
Coax Segment Distance:  Maximum distance of 185 
meters (610 feet)
Table 1 illustrates the individual wires that make up a
straight through twisted pair modular cable.  Each pair has
designated pin connections on an RJ-45 modular connector.
There are only two active pairs in a 10BaseT network.
10BaseT pinning for straight through cabling (from hub to
network device):  Pins 1 and 2 are paired, and pins 3 & 6
are paired.  Use only dedicated wire pairs (such as
blue/white, white/blue, or orange/white, white/orange,etc.).

Installing Optional Slide In Cards
Optional Slide In Cards provide added capability to your net-
work.  These are available in Coax (E-CX-SIC), Fiber optic
(E-FRL-SIC) and Twisted pair (E-TBT-SIC) cabling.  (See
cabling specifications on page 7&8.)  With the optional Slide
In Cards you can cascade to other hubs or connect to a dif-
ferent backbone media.  In addition, the hub redundancy
feature may also be utilized using either Twisted pair or
Fiber optic Slide In Cards (see page 2).  
When installing Slide in Cards, note the following:  1) The
Coax Slide in Card (E-CX-SIC), may not be used for the
redundancy feature and requires a coax T (and terminator if
at the end of a segment).  2) The SQE switch must be set to
OFF.  3) Before installing Slide in Cards, disconnect AC
power to the hub.
