VDO Face 5™ user manual

P3 system layout: schematic overview

Connecting the P3 link

Warning! In outdoor or humid environments, use only Neutrik EtherCON Cat 6 connectors for P3
signal connections, or panels will not be weatherproof to IP65. We recommend use of the cables
supplied by Martin® for the VDO Face 5™ (see “Data cable” on page 51).

To connect the P3 link:

1. Run an Ethernet cable from the P3 System Controller’s P3 signal output to an input on a 1GB Ethernet

Switch.

2. Run an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet Switch to the Data IN connector on the first panel in the chain.

3. Run an Ethernet patch cable from the first panel’s Data THRU connector to the Data IN connector of the

next panel in the chain and continue connecting panels, Data THRU to Data IN in a daisy-chain. A
maximum of 50 panels may be connected in one chain.

4. If necessary, connect additional chains to the P3 System Controller, running Ethernet patch cables from

the Ethernet Switch outputs to the data input of the first panel on each chain. Respect the layout and
guidelines given earlier in this section.

5. Keep all unused panel connectors sealed with their rubber caps at all times.

6. The system is now ready for power to be applied.

7. Set up the panels to display video as described in the P3 System Controller’s user manual.
