Did it look different?
- EvanAnderson 2y agoIt ran over the CATV cable (RG-58?) and each IDF had a switch (or a hub-- not sure) that had an AUI connection (DB-15) that was plugged-in to a transceiver and, finally, into a 10Base-T switch port in the IDF. There were routers at the head-end of the CATV system that connected the various IDF segments back to the plant network. (I believe there were multiple "channels" being used to group various different IDFs into separate 10Mbps collision domains. I didn't put any of that gear in but I remember seeing a diagram that gave me this feeling.)
