MACRO Link Connectors
The unit can be ordered to use either RJ45 connectors with twisted pair copper wires or a fiber optic
connection.
GMxxxxFx Fiber Optic MACRO Link
GMxxxxRx RJ-45 MACRO Link
In either case, there will be an input and an output connector and both are used to connect to the MACRO
link. The input connector is tied to the MACRO output connector of the previous device on the link. The
output connector connects to the input MACRO connector of the next device on the link.

The cable used for the MACRO wired connections is a CAT5 verified straight-through 8 conductor. The
input connector is tied to the MACRO output connector of the previous device on the link. The output
connector connects to the input MACRO connector of the next device on the link.
USB Connector
This connector is used to perform software diagnostic procedures or to download the operational
