Connecting Through Thin Coaxial Cable

The BNC port on the DP-692 can be used to uplink hubs together.
Actually, you can cascade the DP-692 with any other IEEE 802.3
compliant 10BASE-T Ethernet hubs equipped with BNC ports.
You may attach up to thirty nodes to a thin coaxial segment. In
this sense, it is possible to cascade a maximum of thirty hubs to-
gether through the thin coaxial cable.
Be sure to leave a minimum of 0.5 meter (2 feet) of cable between
two BNC ports.
Connecting to a Thin Coaxial Segment
The BNC port on DP-692 is used to connect to a thin coaxial seg-
ment. Connect a T-connector to the BNC connector, then connect
both ends of the T-connector to the thin coaxial cable. If the thin
coaxial segment terminates at the hub, attach a 50-ohm termina-
tor to one end of the T-connector as shown below.

Connecting Computers

The ten UTP ports can be used as a normal hub to build a LAN.
To do this, simply connect a normal straight-through Category 3,4
or 5 UTP or STP cable to a port and to a Network Interface Card
