Network Connection and Remote Communications via CXC
The Cordex system can be set up, monitored and tested via ETHERNET 10/100 Base-T serial data connection.
The communication protocol supports a web interface.
NOTE:
Pinouts are shown in customer connections drawing for CXCM4.
Some standard scenarios are described below:
6.9.1
Ethernet Port for Network Connection (Standard Network Cable)
The Ethernet port is designed for CXC connection to a user supplied network (TCP/IP secured by user) via a front
panel RJ-45 jack. Connect to the Cordex shelf using a standard network cable.
6.9.2
Ethernet Port for Local Connection (Crossover Cable)
Local access (e.g. laptop computer) is also possible from the Ethernet port connection using a standard network
crossover cable.
6.9.3
CXC RS-232 Serial (Craft) Port for Local Connection
Local access to the CXC (CXCM4 or CXCP or CXCR) is possible through the front panel RS-232 serial port using
a null modem cable:
