ABSTRACT:
A communications inter-repeater circuit that includes an Attachment Unit Interface (AUI) port which can be selectively switched between a Media Attachment Unit (MAU) mode and a Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) mode. This selective change in the AUI allows for direct connection of Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) to the repeater without requiring a separate MAU. The determination of the mode for the AUI port is made by a selector. The selector may be a configuration sense pin whereon a selection potential is applied during reset of the repeater functions.
