D-Link DE-528CT [8/25] Thin coaxial cable

DE-528CT Ethernet Adapter / User‘s Guide

Plug one end into the RJ-45 receptacle of the DE-528CT adapter,

and plug the other end into an available port of a 10Base-T hub.

Push each RJ-45 plug into its receptacle until its retainer snaps

into place.

Thin Coaxial Cable

Ascertain that you have 0.2 inch diameter RG-58A/U 50-ohm

coaxial cable, with BNC connectors at each end, not more than

185 meters (600 feet) in length for the network connection. The

stations are connected in a bus topology. Follow the steps:

1. Connect a BNC T-connector onto the BNC receptacle of

the DE-528CT card.

2. Connect the network cable onto either open end of the

BNC T-connector.

3a. If the cable continues on to an additional station or stations,

then connect the continuation cable onto the remaining open

end of the BNC T-connector.

3b. If the network cable does not continue to additional stations

(your computer is at the end of the cable), then connect a 50-

ohm terminator to the remaining open end of the BNC T-

connector.
