Cable Information 71
Cables used when replacing BeoSystem 3 with BeoSystem 4
In cases, where a BeoSystem 3 is replaced with BeoSystem 4, the RS232 cable and the IR cable is often run in a conduit or similarly hidden. The
easiest way to connect to the BeoSystem 4 and keep the cables already installed is done by adding an adapter cable.
See relevant combinations below.
RS232 adaptor cable - RJ45 to DSUB9 male
This cable is a ‘do it yourself’ solution.
This adapter cable is used when BeoSystem 3 is replaced by BeoSystem 4 to adapt the already installed cable to the BeoSystem 4.
The cable is based on an appropriate length of a Network Link Product Cable (see
page 61
) cut in halves. The other half cable may be used for
the ‘IR adaptor cable - RJ45 to MicroFit 8-pin‘ cable; see below.
