1.0 WARRANTY INFORMATION

Patton Electronics warrants all Model 2135 components to be free
from defects, and will—at our option—repair or replace the product
should it fail within one year from the first date of shipment.

This warranty is limited to defects in workmanship or materials,
and does not cover customer damage, abuse or unauthorized modifi­cation. If this product fails or does not perform as warranted, your sole
recourse shall be repair or replacement as described above. Under no
condition shall Patton Electronics be liable for any damages incurred
by the use of this product. These damages include, but are not limited
to, the following: lost profits, lost savings and incidental or consequen­tial damages arising from the use of or inability to use this product.
Patton Electronics specifically disclaims all other warranties, expressed
or implied, and the installation or use of this product shall be deemed
an acceptance of these terms by the user.

1.1 RADIO AND TV INTERFERENCE

The Model 2135 generates and uses radio frequency energy, and
if not installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions—may cause interference to radio and tele­vision reception. The Model 2135 has been tested and complies with
the limits for a Class Acomputing device in accordance with the speci­fication in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, that are designed to pro­vide reasonable protection from such interference in a commercial
installation. However, this is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If the Model 2135 does cause interfer­ence to radio or television reception, which can be determined by dis­connecting the unit, the user is encouraged to try to correct the inter­ference by one or more of the following measures: moving the com­puting equipment away from the receiver, re-orienting the receiving
antenna and/or plugging the receiving equipment into a different AC
outlet (such that the computing equipment and receiver are on different
branches). In the event the user detects intermittent or continuous
product malfunction due to nearby high power transmitting radio fre­quency equipment, the user is strongly advised to use only a shielded
twisted pair data cable that is bonded to metalized external outer shield
plugs at both ends. The use of a shielded cable satisfies compliance
with the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) directive.

1.2 CE NOTICE

The CE symbol on your Patton Electronics equipment indicates
that it is in compliance with the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
directive and the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) of the Union European
(EU). ACertificate of Compliance is available by contacting Patton
Technical Support.

2.2 DESCRIPTION

The Patton Model 2135 MicroBridge is an Ethernet Bridge that

provides LAN extension when used in conjunction with a V.35 DCE
device, such as a DSU/CSU, NTU, or router. The Model 2135 performs
transparent Ethernet bridging and functions at the MAC level, thus is
transparent to higher level protocols such as TCP/IP, DECnet, NET­BIOS, and IPX network protocols. Only broadcast, multicast, or frames
set up for peered LAN are forwarded. The Model 2135 is 802.3
Ethernet compliant and supports PPP Bridging Control Protocol (RFC

1638) on the DTE side.
