2.6. Connection to the Network

When connected to Data Highway/Data Highway Plus networks, the 5136-SD or 5136-SD-MCA card is a single station on the network. The cabling requirements for the Data Highway/Data Highway Plus network are the same as any other station on the network. The card is connected to the network trunk-line using a drop-line constructed of Belden 9463 twin-axial cable ("Blue Hose"). The standard rules for cable routing and termination apply. The card is supplied with a solderless Phoenix-type connector. For Data Highway/Data Highway Plus communication, usually you connect the "CLEAR" wire to Pin 1 or 4 (top pin or pin 4) of the Phoenix connector, the "SHIELD" (bare) to Pin 2 or 5 and the "BLUE" wire to Pin 3 or 6.
