PREPARING FOR INSTALLATIONXEROX DOCUPRINT 4850/4890 IPS INSTALLATION PLANNING GUIDE 4-7Connectivity requirementsA Token Ring network or an Ethernet local area network runningTCP/IP is the network communication system that may be used totransport documents from the host to the IPS. This is an alternativeto the channel-attached configuration, in which data is transmitted viabus and tag cables and the HCU.Ethernet specificationsThe Ethernet connection to the printer controller processor must becompatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers(IEEE) 802.3 standard.The Ethernet interface on the processor is a 10Mb/sec twisted pairstandard (10BaseT and 100BaseT). The MII (for UltraSPARC) CoaxEthernet is enabled with an adapter cable.The Ethernet interface on the printer controller processor is a 10Mb/sec twisted pair standard (10BaseT and 100BaseT). Attachment UnitInterface (AUI) Coax Ethernet is enabled with an adapter cable.Work with your system administrator to assess what type of networkyou have and what modifications need to be made to supply anEthernet connector to the printer controller processor.Token Ring specificationsThe Token Ring connection must be compatible with the IEEE 802.3standard. The printer controller processor has a 4 MB / 16 MB TokenRing Auto interface (16 MB is preferred).
