Unplugging or Plugging In an Ethernet LAN Cable
Unplugging or Plugging In an AUI Cable
Step
Step
Important to know before starting this procedure
Install only AUI cables that conform to ISO 8802-3.
The ISO 8802-3 says:
"The connector is not specified to prevent operator contact with the shield,
precautions shall be taken at installation time to ensure that the installer is
warned that the shield is not brought into contact with any hazardous
voltage while being handled by operating personnel."
To attach your communication controller to the Ethernet LAN the SQE
TEST switch on the Access Unit must be set to ENABLE. If this is not
done, when you connect the cable to the 3746-900, operation of the
Ethernet LAN may be interrupted.
Replacing an AUI cable by a 10BASE-T cable is not a customer's task. Ask
the IBM representative.
