1298.0. " Can U connect a BR90 to Thick Wire Using DECXM-AA? " by KYOSS1::POLAKOWSKI (One of Us is Over 40) Fri Apr 18 1997 12:54



	The site where I'm currently assigned has purchased
	two BROUTER 90s to interconnect two of their sites.
	They did not realize that the device did not have an
	AUI port. They want to know if there is any down side
	to coneecting the Brouters to their LANs using
	DECCXM-AA Transceivers to connect the brouter to the
	LANs through a DELNI.

	Thanx in advance,

	Ken Polakowski

1298.1Yes to "Global Port"FOUNDR::SHEEHANMon Apr 21 1997 14:2621
 Hi Ken,

 You can connnect the DECXM to the DTE "Global Connector" port
 of the DELNI. Make sure the switch is in Global position though.

 You could also use a DEMPR or DESPR or another 10Base2 repeater
 with an AUI port to connect the DECbrouter to one of the DELNI's other
 ports. The DEFAR may be a cheaper solution unless you have some DEMPR's
 lying around.

 DECrepeater90FA (DEFAR) is a three port repeater Fiber, Thinwire
 to AUI which provides low cost connectivity to any combination
 of these media types. 

 Regards,
                             o
