Connector and Cable Details
TP connectors
Both of the RJ-45 ports, the DTP input port and the NAV 1G (Ethernet) port, use twisted
pair patch (straight-through) cables. It is essential that the TP cables be the correct type
and that they be properly terminated with the correct pinout. The TP cable must be properly
terminated for your application (see figure 3). Both of these cables are terminated with
RJ-45 connectors. Both cables are limited to a length of 330 feet (100 meters).
•
DTP input port
— Requires a shielded twisted pair (STP) cable for connection to an
Extron DTP transmitter or DTP CrossPoint matrix switcher.
•
NAV 1G port
— Requires an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or STP cable for connection
of the port to an Ethernet LAN.
NOTES:
•
A CAT 5e cabling infrastructure is the minimum acceptable to support a NAV
system. Anything less is insufficient.
•
Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.

NAV 1G port
The LAN port requires a CAT 5e, or CAT 6a patch cable.
The encoder NAV 1G port supports 1000Mbps (1000base T — Gigabit Ethernet),
half-duplex and full-duplex Ethernet connections.
