Introduction
HP CD-ROM Servers
HP CD-ROM Servers connect CD-ROM drives to Ethernet
networks. All users on the network can share the information on
any CD-ROM inserted into a connected CD-ROM drive.
Stand-Alone Module The stand-alone module provides RJ-45 and BNC network
connectors. The RJ-45 connector connects to a 10Base-T
(twisted-pair cable) network. The BNC connects to a 10Base2
(thin coaxial cable) network. The 50-pin high-density SCSI-2
connector supports up to 7 CD-ROM drives. If CD-ROM disc
changers are used, up to 56 discs can be accessed.
Tower Module The tower module provides RJ-45 and AUI (Attachment Unit
Interface) network connectors. The RJ-45 connector connects to
a 10Base-T (twisted-pair cable) network. If you use an
appropriate external transceiver module, the AUI connector
allows you to connect to a 10Base2 (thin coax), 10Base5 (thick
coax) or fiber-optic network.
