4.2.1 Ethernet network
ETHERNET 10/100/1000 Base T connection is the standard connection used on the Honeywell-
configured platform. An on-board dual NIC must be used for FTE configuration.
4.2.2 MAU connection
Connect the MAU to both Cable A and Cable B coax T-connector as illustrated in the following Figure.
4.2.3 ControlNet Network
A ControlNet Network is a single coaxial trunk cable broken up into segments interconnected by links.
Node Connections to the network are created through a Tap and drop cable. Repeaters are used to link
segments together and for changes in media from coax to fiber optic. All points on the network must
either have an interface card or a terminator. Terminators are comprised of termination resistors, which
