SELECTING CABLES

Hypercom provides two cable matrices that are designed to help you quickly determine the

cable types for your network requirements. The matrices are based upon the chassis

requirements of each network site. That is, whether a specific network node contains an IEN

1000, IEN 2000, IEN 3000, IEN 4000 or IEN 5000 chassis.

Step-By-Step

To select the appropriate cable:

1. Locate the desired port processor or chassis in the Port Processor/Chassis column.

2. Read across the top row to locate the desired physical interface.

3. The intersecting cell between the port processor or chassis and physical inter-

face contains a cable reference letter.

Note: If a cell does not contain a cable designation letter, your configuration is not correct.

Repeat the process starting with Step 1.

4. Read down the Cable Reference column until you locate the cable designation

reference letter. The Cable Type column to the right of the cable reference letter

indicates the cable type that meets the network interface requirements.

After determining the cable type for each port processor and physical interface, refer to the

following sections to learn more about the use of each cable.
