4.1 Powering the Unit

To power a rack-mount unit
1. Insert the C-60 E-MC into a Siqura MC 10 or MC 11 power supply cabinet.
2. Plug the cabinet power cord into a grounded mains socket.

To power a stand-alone unit
The stand-alone version (/SA) of the C-60 E-MC requires an external power supply adapter
(12 VDC).
1. Connect the power adapter to the power connector on the metal SA housing.
2. Plug the power adapter into a grounded mains socket.
4.2 Connecting Cables
Use the appropriate connectors on the C-60 E-MC front panel to connect the network and signal
cables.

To connect the C-60 E-MC to your 100/10Mbit IP/Ethernet network

Plug the network cable into the RJ-45 Ethernet socket on the C-60 E-MC front panel.
Important: Use appropriate cabling (Cat 5 or Cat 6) for network links.

To connect a video source

Connect the coaxial cable from your video source (a camera, for example) to the video input
BNC connector on the C-60 E-MC front panel.

To connect audio, data, and/or contact closure sources/destinations

Plug the cables carrying audio, data, and/or contact closure signals into the corresponding
RJ-45 sockets on the C-60 E-MC front panel.
Important:
Through-connecting the signal ground lines of RS-data interfaces is mandatory,
as is proper grounding. See also the section on pin assignments later in this chapter.
