RJ-45 Jack and Terminal Block Descriptions

Shielded RJ-45 Jack:
· 
Pins 1 and 2 are the balanced inputs. The balanced signals 

are converted to an unbalanced signal on the center 
conductor of the TX Out coax connector.

· The unbalanced signal from the RX In coax connector is 

converted to balanced signals on pins of the RJ-45.

· The shield of the RX In connector may be connected to RJ-

45 pin 6 by jumper JP2 (on).

· The shield of the TX Out connector is always connected to 

the shield around the RJ-45 connector. This connection may 
also be connected to RJ-45 pin 3 via JP1 (on).

Terminal Block:
· 
Has a 4 pin terminal block for a twisted pair connection.
· The 460M has male coaxial connectors (i.e., center 

conductor is a pin) and the 460F has female coaxial 
connectors (i.e., center conductor is a receptacle).

CONFIGURATION

NOTE: The Model 460-TBP does not require configuration; go to 
section “INSTALLATION” on page 2. The following section

describes configuring the Model 460. The Model 460 Series are pre-set
to work in most applications without additional configuration. The only
parameter that is user-configurable is the shield connection between
the 75 Ohm coax and 120 Ohm interfaces. The diagram on the
following page shows how the shield is connected between the modular
jack and dual BNCs. Removing the jumper breaks the connection.

The Model 460 is most often used to bi-directionaly convert CPE

twisted pair terminations to CPE coaxial terminations.

RJ-45 (120 ohm)

Jumper

Coax BNC (75 ohm)

Pin 3 (TX Shield)................ JP1......................TX Out Shield

Pin 6 (RX Shield).................JP2........................RX In Shield

The factory setting leaves both jumpers JP1 and JP2 (see figure

above) in place, thus passing both shield connections through. To break
one or both of the shield connections, follow the instructions on the next
page.

1)

Insert a flat blade screwdriver into the slot on the side of 
the Model 460  case and twist. The case will pop open, 
exposing the PC board.

2)

Holding the PC board with the modular jack facing left, 
locate jumper JP1 toward the top of the board and JP2 
toward the bottom of the board. Remove the desired 
jumper(s) to break one or both shield connections.
NOTE: Do not lose the jumper(s).

3)

Re-align the case halves and end inserts and snap the case 
halves back together.
