A Profile Video Network requires an Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) to
communicate command and status information between systems. If your
Profile systems are not connected to an existing LAN, Tektronix recommends
Ethernet connection to a LAN Hub.
Similarly, connecting more than two Profile systems to a Fibre Channel
Network requires the use of a Video Net Hub. In addition, each Profile system
more than 25 meters from the Video Net Hub or each other, needs a fiber-optic
cable and copper-to-fiber cable adapters. Figure 2 shows an example of
connecting Profile Systems up to and more than 25 meters apart.
Figure 2. Example - Profile System Fibre Channel Connections
Neither of the hubs nor the adapters are part of this Fibre Channel kit, but may
be purchased separately by contacting your Tektronix representative. Figure 3
shows the two hubs and Figure 4 shows a copper-to-fiber cable adapter.
Table 3 lists the Hub and Adapter part numbers.
