Connecting the Line Interface 24
CopperLink CL1211E/CL1212E User Manual 2 • Installation
• RJ-45 (see section “Connecting the RJ-45 Line Interface” )
• Terminal block (see section “Connecting the Terminal Block Line Interface” on page 24)
Note
The CL1200E units work in pairs. The CL1200E/L connects to the
CL1200E/R.
Note
Actual distance and link performance may vary depending on the environ-
ment and type/gauge of wire used.
Connecting the RJ-45 Line Interface
Do the following to connect the Line interface.
1. To function properly, the two CL1200Es must be connected together using twisted-pair, unconditioned,
dry, metal wire, between 19 (0.9mm) and 26 AWG (0.4mm). Leased circuits that run through signal
equalization equipment are not acceptable.
2.
The CL1200E is equipped with an RJ-45 interface jack (see figure 2 on page 15)

3.
The RJ-45 connector on the CL1200E’s twisted pair interface is polarity insensitive and is wired for a two-
wire interface. The signal/pin relationship is shown in (see
figure 12 ).
Connecting the Terminal Block Line Interface
Do the following to connect the Line interface:
1.
To function properly, the two CL1200Es must be connected together using twisted-pair, unconditioned,
dry, metal wire, between 19 (0.9mm) and 26 AWG (0.4mm). Leased circuits that run through signal
equalization equipment are not acceptable.
2.
The CL1200E is equipped with a terminal block (see figure 13 )
