Router Communication

 

The following connection example (

Figure 2

) shows connection of four 

Triton Plus devices with RJ-45 connectors and bus termination:

Figure 2.  Four Devices Connected Together Using RJ-45

Note

Each device at the end of the chain has a termination plug, indicated with the 
letter T. This termination plug must be inserted in the correct connection port. 
If not, no NCB communication is possible.

Termination Plug

The termination plug that is mentioned in the previous chapter is necessary 
when you want to avoid closing the loop with a (long) cable.

The termination plug is a standard RJ-45 plug with the following internal 
wiring shown in 

Figure 3

. 

Figure 3.  RJ-45 Termination Plug Wiring

Pin 3 is connected to Pin 4

Pin 5 is connected to Pin 6
