Daisy Chaining
Multiple DL3800E units can be daisy-chained together through the
Terminal Port to provide centralized network monitoring and management
capabilities.
A ribbon-type cable with DB-9 connectors is available from Quick Eagle
Networks for daisy-chaining your DL3800E units. You can order specific
cables to daisy-chain four units (Part No. 154-00051-01), eight units
(Part No. 154-00052-01), or twelve units (Part No. 154-00053-01). To place an
order, contact the Quick Eagle Networks Sales Department at (408) 745-
6200.
If using a cable other than the above, see
“Terminal Connection” on page
B-1
for Terminal Port pin assignments. With this cable, CTS (pin 8) must be
connected between DL3800E units, but must not be connected to the
terminal.
The one socket connector on the ribbon is to be connected to the terminal
or modem (if a remote site). The remaining plug DE-9 connectors are
connected to the DL3800E1 unit port. Each unit must be assigned a unique
node number.
When units are daisy-chained together, the local terminal must be
operating in Multidrop Mode. Each unit should be given a unique Node
Number.
NOTE: For detailed instructions on installing SNMP systems, refer to
the separate installation guides for these products.
