2.3.2 Interconnections
The TMP6400s are connected to the Tmedia Control network by one or, optionally, two Gigabit Ethernet
network links, as shown in figure 2.2 on page 11.
To connect the TMP6400s to the Tmedia control network:
1. Start with the TMP6400 at the topmost position of the equipment rack and connect a CAT5 Ethernet
straight cable with RJ45 male-male terminations to ETH1 at the rear of the TMP6400. Connect the
other end of the same CAT5 cable to the Gigabit Ethernet switch.
2. If your system employs a second Gigabit Ethernet switch for control redundancy, connect a second
CAT5 Ethernet straight cable to ETH2 at the rear of the TMP6400. Connect the other end of the
same CAT5 cable to the second Gigabit Ethernet switch.
3. Repeat steps 1-2 for each TMP6400 and TMS1600 until they have all been connected to the
Gigabit Ethernet switch(es).
