Ethernet (LAN) Port
The rear panel Ethernet connector on the switcher can be connected to an Ethernet
LAN or WAN. Communications between the switcher and the controlling device
are via telnet (a TCP socket using port 23). The TCP port can be changed, if
necessary, via SIS. This connection makes SIS control of the switcher possible using
a computer connected to the same LAN or WAN. The SIS commands and the
switcher’s actions and responses when communication via the Ethernet port are
idential to those when communicating with the switcher via any of the serial ports.
Ethernet connection
The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover
cable and must be properly terminated for your application (figure 3-3).
• Crossover cable — Direct connection between the computer and the
FOX 4G Matrix 14400 switcher
• Patch (straight-through) cable — Connection of the FOX 4G Matrix 14400
switcher to an Ethernet LAN
