Receive (RCV)
When this yellow LED flashes, the TPT-D4 is receiving
data from the network. If attached to a repeater, the
LED flashes when data passes through the TPT-D4.
The flash is pulse-stretched for viewing effect.
Collision (CLN)
When this red LED flashes, the transceiver detected a
collision condition or a jabber packet on the network.
The flash frequency may increase as network activity
increases, since more collisions are likely to occur.
The LED flash is pulse-stretched for viewing effect.
Link OK (LNK)
When this green LED is on, a link exists between the
transceiver and the device at the other end of the
twisted pair segment. LNK remains lit as long as the
link is maintained. Both ports can show a valid link.
Active Port (ACT)
When this yellow LED is on solid, its associated RJ45
port is handling all network traffic through the
transceiver.
Only one port can be active; the inactive port ACT
LED is turned off. A flashing ACT LED indicates that
the associated RJ45 port is the active port and it is in
the Idle state. A slow flash indicates that the time-out
period is set to 10 seconds; a fast flash indicates that
the time-out period is set to 2 seconds.

TPT-D4
10BASE-T TWISTED PAIR
REDUNDANT TRANSCEIVER
The TPT-D4 twisted pair transceiver links two
Ethernet devices through 10BASE-T twisted pair
and attachment unit interface (AUI) cable segments.
Dual twisted pair ports with RJ45 connectors
provide redundant data paths for critical
applications. If the primary port (port 1) does not
receive any data for either 2 or 10 seconds (switch
selectable), the port enters the Idle state. If the
back-up port (port 2) receives data during the Idle
state, it becomes the active port. When the primary
port senses data again, it switches back to become
the active port. Also, if a segment becomes
disconnected from the primary port, the data path
automatically switches to the back-up port. To avoid
the creation of a data loop, only one port can be
active at any one time. You can connect the two
transceiver ports to the same network device,
different network devices, or even different
networks.
REQUIREMENTS
The TPT-D4 transceiver complies with IEEE 802.3
10BASE-T specifications. For the best network
performance, be sure to observe the following
network guidelines.

Twisted Pair Segment Length
The IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T standard requires that
devices support a 100-meter minimum segment length
when using a 10BASE-T compliant medium.
If the signal loss is less than 11.5 dB at all frequencies
between 5 and 10 MHz, support for longer segments
of up to 200 meters is possible.
AUI Cable
The AUI cable you use to connect the TPT-D4 to an
Ethernet device can be up to 50 meters long and must
comply with IEEE 802.3 specifications.
OPERATING SPECIFICATIONS
Cabletron Systems reserves the right to change these
specifications at any time without notice.

INSTALLATION
When you install the TPT-D4 transmitter, be sure to
observe the operating requirements and
specifications listed previously. To install the TPT-
D4, proceed as follows:
Caution:
To prevent equipment damage
,
set the
SQE and MIN/MAX switches using a nonconductive
probe, or disconnect the transceiver AUI connector
to remove power from the device.
1. Set the SQE Switch.
Note:
The SQE (Signal Quality Error) test function
must be disabled if you connect the TPT-D4
transceiver to a repeater or to an Ethernet Version 1
device. Devices that do not support the SQE test
function will interpret the SQE test pulse as a
collision. In addition, some of the Version 2
equipment does not support the SQE test.
The SQE switch is a two position switch located on
the top of the transceiver. The SQE switch is factory
set to the ON position ( ). To disable the SQE test
function, slide the SQE switch to the OFF position
( ), as indicated on the front of the transceiver.
2. Set the MIN/MAX Switch.
The MIN/MAX switch sets the time duration that the
TPT-D4 waits for data before switching to the
redundant port. MIN equals approximately 2
seconds and MAX equals approximately 10
seconds. If you attach the TPT-D4 to a high-activity
network, select the MIN setting. If you attach the
TPT-D4 to a low-activity network, select the MAX
setting.
3. Set the Crossover Switches.
A crossover switch at each of the two RJ45 ports
allows you to select a crossover (X) or straight-
through (=) pin configuration for that RJ45 port.
When you attach a twisted pair cable to a TPT-D4
RJ45 port, check the pin configuration of the RJ45
connector on the device to be connected. Then set
the associated TPT-D4 port crossover switch so the
twisted pair TX and RX signal pairs connect as
follows:
4. Connect the TPT-D4 to the network as follows:
a. Attach a twisted pair cable from the
transceiver to the network device.
b. Attach the AUI cable to the Ethernet device.
c. Check the LANVIEW indicators. The PWR
LED should be lit to indicate that the
transceiver is receiving power through the
AUI cable. The LNK LEDs should be lit to
indicate that the twisted pair ports are
linked to the network device.
USING LANVIEW
LANVIEW is Cabletron Systems built-in diagnostic
and status monitoring system.
Power (PWR)
When this green LED is on, the TPT-D4 transceiver
is receiving power through its AUI connector. If the
PWR LED is off, power is not being received or the
dc-to-dc converter in the transceiver has failed.
Signal Quality Error (SQE)
When this yellow LED is on, the transceiver SQE
test function is selected. The SQE test is used to
ensure that the collision presence circuit and the
path between the Ethernet device and the
transceiver are operational.
Transmit (XMT)
When this green LED flashes, the transceiver is
transmitting data. The LED flash is pulse-stretched
for viewing effect. The LED is off when the device is
active but not transmitting.
