IEEE 802.3. Ethernet Version 2 and IEEE 802.3 were based on, and developed shortly after, Ethernet Version 1. The slight differences between Ethernet and IEEE 802.3 are implemented in hardware, and both are supported automatically by the 5EFL without any hardware configuration 6 PA-5EFL Ethernet 10BASE-FL Port Adapter Installation and Configuration...

The term 10BASE-FL is an abbreviation for 10 Mbps transmission, Baseband medium, F for fiber, and L for link, as defined in the 10BASE-FL specification. The Ethernet specifications call the 5EFL device a transceiver, and it is connected to the station with a transceiver cable. The 5EFL port adapter is not an end station.
The 5EFL port adapter provides up to five IEEE 802.3 Ethernet 10BASE-FL interfaces. (See Figure 1.) Each Ethernet 10BASE-FL interface allows a maximum bandwidth of 10 Mbps, for a maximum aggregate bandwidth of 50 Mbps, half-duplex. Each 10BASE-FL interface uses two multimode (ST) receptacles for receive (RX) and transmit (TX).

1 is in the lower left position and port adapter slot 6 is in the upper right position. The Cisco 7204 and Cisco 7204VXR are not shown, but have four port adapter slots; PA-5EFL can be installed in any of these four slots.

If any of these conditions is not met, or if the initialization fails for other reasons, the enabled LED does not go on. When a 10BASE-FL port is active, its link LED is on when the 5EFL port adapter is receiving a carrier signal from the network.
The 5EFL interfaces on a VIP2 are configured for 10 Mbps, half duplex, for a maximum aggregate bandwidth of 50 Mbps for half-duplex. Cisco Systems does not supply ST-type optical-fiber cables; these cables are available commercially. For ST-type, multimode optical-fiber cable specifications and transmission distance limitations and requirements, refer to the section...

You must connect the 5EFL port adapter to a 10BASE-FL repeater or hub. ST-type fiber-optic cables are not available from Cisco Systems; they are available from outside commercial cable vendors.
0. For example, in Figure 14, the five 10BASE-FL interface ports on the 5EFL port adapter in the first port adapter slot in chassis slot 3, have the following addresses: 3/0/0, 3/0/1, 3/0/2, 3/0/3, and 3/0/4. (See Figure 14.) The interfaces on the second 5EFL port adapter have the following addresses: 3/1/0, 3/1/1, 3/1/2, 3/1/3, and 3/1/4.
If you remove the 5EFL-equipped VIP2 from slot 3 and install it in slot 2, the addresses of Note those same 10BASE-FL ports become 2/0/0 through 2/0/4 and 2/1/0 through 2/1/4. Figure 14 5EFL in port adapter slot 0 (port numbers 3/0/0, 3/0/1, 3/0/2,...
If the interface is down and you configured it as up, or if the displays indicate that the hardware is not functioning properly, ensure that the network interface is properly connected and terminated. If you still have problems bringing the interface up, contact a service representative for assistance. 20 PA-5EFL Ethernet 10BASE-FL Port Adapter Installation and Configuration...

In these examples, most of the status information for each interface is omitted, and the five Ethernet 10BASE-FL interfaces (0–4) are in chassis slot 3, in port adapter slot 0. (Interfaces are administratively shut down until you enable them.)
