Installation Guide
Product release 8
• When multiple sessions are used, the same MTE options, font, and
programmable button definitions are shared between the sessions. If
one of these components is changed in one MTE session, the changes
apply to all other MTE sessions running on the same PC.
MTE LAN connection
Meridian MAX 8 provides Ethernet and Ethernet 2 frame connectivity for
supervisor workstations through the industry-standard TCP/IP protocol.
Only FTP Sotware’s PC/TCP software is supported.
Customer-supplied hardware
On the Meridian MAX end of the LAN connection, an Ethernet IEEE 802.3
LAN connection is provided by using a 15-pin AUI connector from the I/O
panel. A customer-supplied transceiver is then used to connect the AUI
connector to the LAN.
Meridian MAX supports any of the following Ethernet backbones:
10Base-T, 10Base2, 10Base5, and 10Base-FL (fiber optics).
Table 6-2 lists the CISPR 22B compliant Ethernet transceivers that were
tested and verified by Nortel. However, any transceiver that complies with
the CISPR 22B standard, or any other country-specific requirements, is
acceptable.
