Performing the On-Site Installation
After removing the Enable-IT 860XC PRO Gigabit Coax Ethernet Extender Kit from the box, and
performing the Out Of The Box Testing (OOTBT), all that remains to install the unit on-site is to
mount the unit, build the interconnect wiring and attach the LAN device cabling with the
provided Ethernet Patch cords.
Mounting the Enable-IT 860XC PRO Gigabit Coax Ethernet Extender Units
The Enable-IT 860XC PRO extended Ethernet solution is designed for quick wall mounting.
Choose a location to mount each of the Enable-IT 860XC PRO’s where the maximum distance
does not exceed 3,000ft (914m) total between devices to be connected. When wall-mounting
the Enable-IT 860XC PRO unit it is recommended that you use the appropriate screw anchors
for your mounting surface. If mounting on existing plywood use wood screws; if mounting onto
drywall or sheetrock, use plastic drywall anchors to secure your installation.
Building the 860XC PRO Interlink Wiring
The most important aspect of the installation is the correct wiring of the Interlink cabling.
The 860XC PRO Interlink port (Coax BNC) carries this 1-pair signaling over 75 Ohm rated RG6 cabling
and is used as the transport for gigabit transport and powering up the remote 860XC PRO CPE unit.
For all wiring you will need to crimp a Coax BNC head to each end of the contiguous wire run. The
860XC PRO BNC Interlink port carries this 1-pair signaling and power over the coax.
For all wiring you will need to crimp a 75 Ohm BNC Female head to each end of the contiguous wire
run straight through. We recommend using 75 Ohm coaxial cable as it is optimized for high throughput
frequencies isolated from cross-talk noise. Insert the completed BNC ends into the 860XC PRO BNC
Interlink port on each 860XC PRO unit.
Cabling Devices to The Enable-IT 860XC PRO Extended Ethernet Kit
Attach your remote LAN device to the 860XC PRO CPE unit LAN ports with Ethernet patch cord
provided. Attach your local LAN to the 860XC PRO CO LAN ports with Ethernet patch cord provided.
Attach the power adapters to both 860XC PRO units.
Attach your local Interlink cabling end to the 860XC PRO CO unit Interlink port – Then do the same for
the remote end and plug into the 860XC PRO CPE unit Interlink port. The Interlink side Green Link
LED should blink rapidly, indicating is sees the remote partner. There is no sync delay! Your equipment
should now be powered up and functioning. LED indicators will provide visual operational status of the
860XC PRO units.
Troubleshooting
First examine the backbone wiring pair and make sure you have solid connections. The Interlink
green Link LED will blink rapidly when it sees the partner unit and connects successfully. If the
Interlink Sync LED Link is off
