Type 1 Token Ring costs less than Type 1A Token Ring and Token Ring will only run at MAXIMUM 16 Mbs so the Suffix "A" cable is
NOT NECESSARY unless specified by the customer.IBM USES SUFFIX (A) TO DENOTE 100 MEGAHERTZ PER SECOND. THE CABLE CAN BE EITHER PVC OR PLENUM.
(1A)(1B) ARE MAJOR CUSTOM CABLE PART NUMBERS. ALL OF OUR TOKEN RING CABLE MEETS TYPE SUFFIX (A) SPECIFICATIONS. TOKEN RING
= A popular type of LOCAL AREA NETWORK (LAN) utilizing a token passing access method and a ring topology. DATA TO DATA = PATCH CABLE
 DATA TO DB9M = PC ADAPTER CABLE
DATA TO SHIELDED RJ45 = SYNOPTICS 950.8 (M)
DATA TO SHIELDED RJ45 = AMP WIRING (MAMP)
DB9M TO SHIELDED RJ45 = TOKEN RING ADAPTER (NETWORK ADAPTER) CHECK LIST: 1. ASSEMBLY TYPE (PATCH, PC ADAPTER, ...etc.)?
2. CONNECTORS (DATA, DB9M or SHIELDED RJ45)?
3. GENDER (MALE or FEMALE)?
4. JACKET (PVC or PLENUM)?
5. LENGTH? EMC 300 MHz Data Assemblies The EMC (Electro-Magnetic Control) Data Connector, from AMP,is STP-A performance tested per EIA/TIA 568A specifications. It is
bandwidth specified through 300 MHz and is easily identified by its compact design (1/2 inch shorter) and color (Pearl White). The
EMC connector interface itself has not been changed making it compatible with ALL other data connectors! |
