1.6 SAFETY WHEN WORKING WITH ELECTRICITY
• This device contains no user serviceable parts. This
device can only be repaired by qualified service per
sonnel.
• Do not open the device when the power cord is connected. For systems without a power switch and without
an external power adapter, line voltages are present
within the device when the power cord is connected.
• For devices with an external power adapter, the power
adapter shall be a listed Limited Power Source. The
mains outlet that is utilized to power the device shall be
within 10 feet (3 meters) of the device, shall be easily
accessible, and protected by a circuit breaker in com
pliance with local regulatory requirements.
• For AC powered devices, ensure that the power cable
used meets all applicable standards for the country in
which it is to be installed.
• For AC powered devices which have 3 conductor
power plugs (L1, L2 & GND or Hot, Neutral &
WARNING
Safety/Protective Ground), the wall outlet (or socket)
must have an earth ground.
-
-
• For DC powered devices, ensure that the interconnecting cables are rated for proper voltage, current, anticipated temperature, flammability, and mechanical
serviceability.
• WAN, LAN & PSTN ports (connections) may have hazardous voltages present regardless of whether the
device is powered ON or OFF. PSTN relates to inter
faces such as telephone lines, FXS, FXO, DSL, xDSL,
T1, E1, ISDN, Voice, etc. These are known as “hazard
ous network voltages” and to avoid electric shock use
caution when working near these ports. When discon
necting cables for these ports, detach the far end connection first.
• Do not work on the device or connect or disconnect
cables during periods of lightning activity.

WARNING
• Always follow ESD prevention procedures when
removing and replacing cards.
• Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it
makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to an
unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely chan
nel unwanted ESD voltages to ground.
• To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks,
the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively. If no
wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the
metal part of the chassis.

2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Patton Electronics Model 2174 CopperLink modems provide highspeed LAN connecti ons b etween peered Etherne t L ANs, rem ote PCs , or
any other network-enabled 10/100Base-T device.
Operating in pairs, one Model 2174 is configured as the (L) Local unit
located at one end of the LAN extension and the other Model 2174 is con
figured as the (R) Remote unit at the other end. The Model 2174 is configured as a L or R via the switch on the bottom of the unit. These units can
automatically forward LAN broadcasts, multicasts, an d frames ac ross a 2wire voice-grade twisted-pair or BNC link. The data is passed transp ar
ently (unmodified) through the 2174s. The 2174s automatically add and
delete MAC addresses, only passing pac ket s ac ross the C opperLINK link
that are meant for the remote peered LAN.

Figure 1. Typical application
The pair of 2174 models work together to create a transpa rent extensio n
between two peered Ethernet LANs using twisted pair (2-wire), Cat5+, or
75-ohm BNC.
Figure 1 shows a typical point-to-point application.

perature, flammability, and mechanical serviceability.
To install the 2174 Ethernet Extender, do the following:
1. Connect the line interface between the units (refer to section 3.1,
“Connecting the Line Interface” on page 11)
Note See Figure 2 for the Model 2174’s rear panel arrangements.
2. Connect the Ethernet interface (refer to section 3.2, “Connecting the
10/100Base-T Ethernet Interface” on page 12).
3. Connect the power plug (refer to section 3.3, “C onnecting Powe r” on
page 13).

(0.5
Note Actual distance and link performance may vary depending on
the environment and type/gauge of wire used.
Follow the steps below to connect the Model 2174 CopperLINK Interfaces.
Note The Model 2174 units work in pairs. One of the units must be
configured as a (L) Local unit, and the other unit must be configured as a (R) Remote unit.
Connecting the Line Interface for Model 2174/EUI or 2174/TB
1. To function properly, the two Model 2174s must be connected
together using twisted-pair, unconditioned, dry, metal wire, between
19 (0.9mm) and 26 AWG (0.4mm). Leased circuits that run through
signal equalization equipment are not acceptable.
2. The Model 2174 is equipped with an RJ-45 interface jack (Figure 3) or
terminal block (Figure 4) that can be used on the CopperLINK interface. The CopperLINK interface is a two-wire interface. Observe the
signal/pin relationships on the Model 2174's CopperLINK interface
jack.
The RJ-45 connector on the Model 2174's twisted pair interface is polarity insensitive and is wired for a two-wire interface. The signal/pin relationship is shown in Figure 3.

CAUTION
The Model 2174 does not have a power switch, so it powers up as soon
as it is plugged in.
An external AC or DC power supply is availab le se p arately. This conne ction is made via the barrel jack on the rear panel of the Model 2174. No
configuration is necessary for the power supply (See Appendix B for
domestic and international power supply and cord options).
DC power (supplied via the power supply jack to the 2174) must meet
the following requirements; DC power supplied must be regulated
12VDC ±5%, 1.0A minimum. Center pin is +12V. The barrel type plug
has a 2.5/5.5/10mm I.D./O.D./Shaft Length dimensions.
The Model 2174 has eight D IP switch es (S1) for configuri ng the unit for a
wide variety of applications. This section describes switch locations and
