NOTE Do not connect the probe to either the ring-in (RI) or ring-out (RO) connection
port.
The Token-Ring interface can also be connected to a Type 3 MsAU using a Media
Filter. The Media Filter is used to connect from STP (DB-9) to UTP (RJ-45).
Figure 3-7 shows the Token-Ring interface connected to a MsAU using a Media
Filter.

If your network uses the Token-Ring Data Connectors, you need a Type 1 cable
with a Token-Ring Data Connector on one end and a DB-9 connector on the other
end to connect the probe to the ring. Connect the Token-Ring Data Connector plug
to any open port (excluding the RI or RO ports) of a MsAU and connect the DB-9
connector to the probe’s DB-9 connector. Figure 3-8 on page 57 shows the Token-
Ring interface connected to a Type 1 MsAU using Token-Ring Data and DB-9
connectors.
