CISPR/EN55022 Class A

FCC Regulations

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class A digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at the user’s own expense.

Canadian Regulations

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise for digital apparatus set out on
the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Le présent appareil numérique n'émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables
aux appareils numériques de la class A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique
édicté par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

The TRANSITION Networks E-TBT-MC03 transceiver with LinkALERT™is
a media access unit (MAU) that connects the AUI port of any DTE,
repeater, or other network device, either directly or through an AUI cable,
to an Ethernet™10BASE-T device. The Ethernet device is connected to the
E-TBT-MC03 through unshielded or shielded twisted-pair copper cable
and an RJ-45 connector.

E-TBT-MC03 IN THE NETWORK

NOTE: AUI cable can be used to connect to the transceiver.

Using LinkAlert™

The LinkAlert™ feature allows the transceiver to pass 10BASE-T-side link faults
to the AUI side and to pass AUI-side link faults to the 10BASE-T side.

If the channel does not detect a good link on the 10BASE-T side, the transceiver
disables all transmission (including active-idle) on the AUI side AND the
STATUS LED on the transceiver blinks twice.
