INSTALLATION
transceiver or PC network interface card. Figure 3-3 shows a
representation of a typical twisted pair repeater installation. Pins 1,
2, 3, and 6 in an RJ-45 connector are the pins used to carry the
signals. Repeater Port 1X connects to a transceiver, which connects
to a PC network interface card. The Repeater Port 9 configuration
select switch is set to straight-through (=). Port 9 connects to a
Media Interface Module (MIM) which resides in a network hub and
provides access to the rest of the Ethernet network.

3.5 CONNECTING THE NETWORK SEGMENT
MR9T Port 9 is an RJ-45 port. The MR9T-C has a BNC connector at
Port 9. You can use any port to connect the repeater to the network.
1. If you use an RJ-45 port to connect to the network, connect one
end of a twisted pair segment to a 10BASE-T network hub.
