The IMC allows user control of the TimeProvider 5000 through either the Ethernet
Management port or the EIA-232 serial port.
Ethernet Management Port
The Ethernet Management port on the IMC is standard 10/100Base-T shielded
RJ-45 receptacle. To connect the TimeProvider 5000 to an Ethernet network, use a
standard twisted-pair Ethernet RJ-45 cable (CAT5 minimum).
Expansion Management Port
The expansion Management port on the IMC is a standard 10/100Base-T shielded
RJ-45 receptacle. To connect the TimeProvider 5000 to a TP E10 or TPE30
