Ethernet is a local area network that provides communication
between various devices at 10 Mbps. The physical communication
media options for the SLC 5/05 are:
•
built-in
– twisted pair (10Base-T)
•
with media converters or hubs
– fiber optic
– broadband
– thick-wire coaxial cable (10Base-5)
– thin-wire coaxial cable (10Base-2)
See page 2–4 for more information on Ethernet physical media.
The SLC 5/05 supports Ethernet communication via the Ethernet
communication channel 1 shown in the drawing below.
