User’s Manual

  With  each  system, 

cabling  and  patch  panels  are  provided

.  It  is  very  important  to  use  the 

system with the intended cables to prevent electromagnetic interferences between the analog audio 
signal, the DASnet data and the power.  Be sure to check the specifications provided by the cable 
manufacturer. It is also especially important when installing connectors yourself,  to note that when 
termination is not accurate, a cable will be unable to achieve its maximum performance and could 
have interferences.
  There are 4 different types of cables:

  - The main feeds which include power and a STP, CAT7 cable. These cables are named 

eCP_xx

 (xx refers to cable length, and the standard values are 3m or 20m).

  - The links between cabinets (aero40A/Convert15A/LX-218CAnet), which are STP CAT7 
cables. Cable code 

eC_09

  - Power Links between cabinets.Cable code 

Plink1_09

  - 

Links for RoadNet series. Power+STP CAT7. eCPk_1/eCPk_5

The main feed cable eCP_xx has the following structure:

AL Shield

STP CAT 7 cable with Aluminium Shield for 
each individual pair and a main aluminium 
Shield.
The main Shield has to be soldered to the 
etherCon housing.

The eC_09 cable is a CAT5e cable with 
global Aluminium Shield.
