CrossPoint 450 Plus and MAV Plus Switchers • Installation
If desired, connect an MCP 1000 remote control panel master unit to the
switcher’s RS-232/RS-422 connector. You can also connect an MKP 1000
remote keypad or MCP 1000 slave unit to the MCP 1000 master unit. Refer to
the MCP 1000 Remote Control Panel User’s Manual and the MKP 1000 User’s
Manual for details.

Ethernet port
— If desired, connect the matrix switcher to a PC or to an
Ethernet LAN, via this RJ-45 connector. You can use a PC to control
the networked switcher with SIS commands from anywhere in the
world. You can also control the switcher from a PC that is either
running Extron’s windows-based control program or that has
downloaded HTML pages from the switcher.
Ethernet connection indicators
— The Link and Act LEDs indicate
the status of the Ethernet connection. The Link LED indicates that
the switcher is properly connected to an Ethernet LAN. This LED
should light steadily. The Act LED indicates transmission of data
packets on the RJ-45 connector. This LED should flicker as the
switcher communicates.
Cabling and RJ-45 connector wiring
It is vital that your Ethernet cables be the correct cables, and that they be properly
terminated with the correct pinout. Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 5e or CAT 6,
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated
with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet cables are limited to a length 328’ (100 m).
Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables will not support
Ethernet or Fast Ethernet.
Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.
The cable used depends on your network speed. The switcher supports both
10 Mbps (10Base-T — Ethernet) and 100 Mbps (100Base-T — Fast Ethernet),
half-duplex and full-duplex, Ethernet connections.
