MPI Technologies LAN Brick Eth 10 User manual

Print Server
The perfect solution for migration of coax or twinax
AFP/IPDS printers into an Ethernet network
The MPI Tech LAN Brick Eth 10 is the only and obvious choice when existing
coax- and twinax attached AFP/IPDS printers should be moved into an
Ethernet LAN environment.
The solution preserves existing investments into AFP/IPDS printing
equipment as well as it removes the need for double cabling systems.
The MPI Tech LAN Brick is designed for Ethernet networks and supports
10Base-2 (coax BNC connector) and 10Base-T (RJ45 connector) networks.
The LAN Brick operates with IBM PSF/MVS, IBM PSF/400, IBM PSF/2 and PSF
for AIX Version 2.1 to provide LAN connectivity for IBM compatible midrange
IPDS printers.
