Connect The Networks To The Bridge - HP 10:10 LAN Bridge MB Installation And Reference Manual

2. Connect the networks to the bridge

Attach the network cables to the bridge port 1 and port 2 connectors using the appropriate
transceivers. Use only one of the Port 1 connectors, (BNC or AUI). The bridge automatically
detects which port is being used.
Port 2
AUI
Port 1
ThinLAN
Caution
To reduce the possibility of damage to the bridge, any time you are
connecting or disconnecting the port cables, you should first make sure the
bridge's power cord is unplugged. Plug the power cord back in after the
cables are reconnected.
The HP 10:10 LAN Bridge MB connects to networks in these ways:
To a thin coax, thick coax, fiber-optic, or twisted-pair cable network through
transceivers attached to the bridge's AUI connectors. (The illustration above shows the
use of compact transceivers, available from Hewlett-Packard, that attach directly to the
AUI connector and do not require the use of an AUI cable.)
Directly to a thin coax cable network through the ThinLAN BNC connector (the bridge
has an internal transceiver for the BNC connector).
