Re: Cable to connect 2502 to MAU

2001-01-29 Thread Ken W. Alger

True, true, but it certainly beats the $38.00 that they charge at the local
electronics store.  It has always amazed me at the price that we in the IT
field pay to avoid the "hassle" of making cables/connectors, i.e. Cisco
charges $100 for an AUX/Console cable kit.

Anyway, just my opinion.

Hi

You need a media filter, which is nothing more than a DB9 head shell with
four pins connected. Here is a link for all kinds of pin outs, including TR.

2500ug/pin.htm

The head shell should'nt cost more than about $3 at the local electronics
store.

Then a straight Cat5 cable to the MAU.

No offense, but $15 plus shipping for a  head shell is crazy!

If I am not mistaken, you need to obtain a Token Ring Media Filter that has
DB9 Female on one end and RJ45 Female on the other.

They run $15.00 at http://www.optsys.net/.

Tell Brad I sent you.

Cable to connect 2502 to MAU

2001-01-28 Thread trammer

Can anyone give me the proper name or part number for a cable that I can use
to connect a 2502 Token Ring router to an RJ45 based Token Ring switch.  I
know there is the DB9 to Type 1 cables available, I just must be missing the
boat on the name for DB9 Male to RJ45 cable that it seems like I need.

If anyone has any insight it is appreciated.
