FCC Radio Frequency Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B computing device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to
cause harmful interference in which the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The use of non-shielded I/O cables may not guarantee compliance with FCC RFI limits. This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B
limits for radio noise emission from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of the Canadian Department of
Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de classe B
prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique publié par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

About the McPC TP/BNC
The McPC™ TP/BNC is a low-cost, preconfigured, IEEE 802.3 single-conversion PC
media converter that converts between 10Base-T twisted pair and 10Base-2 thin
coax. It is available with one RJ45 connector for the twisted pair port and one BNC
connector for the coax port.
The McPC TP/BNC can be mounted in any PC with a standard PCI slot. It includes
diagnostic LEDs for each port and a 4-pin peripheral power supply connector.
Installation Instructions
To install a McPC, perform the
following steps:
1.
Turn off the power on your PC.
2.
Remove the cover.
3.
Find an empty slot.
4.
Align the McPC in the slot.
5.
Mount the McPC by screwing its
bracket to the computer casing,
making sure the McPC does not
extend past the edge of your
case.
6.
Attach the keyed mini-power
connector to the McPC.
7.
Attach the male end of the “Y” connector to a standard size power connector in
your computer.
8.
Replace the cover.
9.
Attach the cables between the McPC and the devices that will be interconnected.
Note
McPCs DO NOT plug into the motherboard. The McPC only needs power from the
computer; no additional power source is necessary.

Configuration
The following diagram shows the faceplate for the McPC TP/BNC:
McPC TP/BNC, Front View
After installation, you can configure McPCs for the following features, depending on
the requirements of your installation:
•
Crossover/straight-through connection on the twisted pair port
•
BNC Port Termination.
Twisted Pair Crossover/Straight-Through Switch
The twisted pair port features a push-button switch, located next to the RJ45
connector, for selecting a crossover workstation connection or straight-through
repeater/hub connection for this port.
To select a straight-through connection, simply press the push-button IN. A crossover
connection is selected when the push-button is OUT.
If uncertain whether a crossover or straight-through connection is needed, set the
push-button to the position that makes the LNK (link) LED glow.
BNC Port Termination
The McPC TP/BNC features a 2-position switch next to the BNC connector that
allows a thin coaxial segment to be terminated at the port without an additional ‘T’
connector and terminator.
If the McPC TP/BNC is attached to a mid-point of
a thin Ethernet segment, attach a ‘T’ connector to
the BNC port. Termination must be OFF
(disabled). Termination is disabled when the
switch is in the left position.
If a thin Ethernet segment is to be terminated at
the McPC TP/BNC, attach the cable directly to the
BNC connector and set the termination switch to ON (enabled – factory default) by
moving the switch to the right position.
6
LED Indicators
The McPC TP/BNC features four diagnostic LEDs.
These LEDs include the following:
•
TP LNK
- Blinks yellow when twisted pair port is receiving data.
•
BNC ACT
- Glows green when a BNC port is receiving data.
•
BNC COL
- Blinks red in normal operation indicating normal collisions are being
detected on the BNC segment.
•
POWER
- Glows yellow when the McPC is receiving power.
