L-1011 Trainer Installation: Ethernet and Interbus Cabling

L-1011 Trainer - Ethernet

Today was one of those "got a lot done .. but have little to show" kind of installation days. Today I installed Ethernet cabling into the simulator for both the instrumentation control as well as the simulation computer network. In the diagram below you can see the different cables installed into the simulator for both of the main data systems; Ethernet and Interbus:

All cables are built to custom length, so it took a while to get them all laced in, cut and ends crimped on them. All Ethernet connections are now point to point tested from the simulator computers to the switches. The Interbus tests are to follow.
