Enova Digital Media Switchers - Hardware Reference Manual
T568B
The following table lists the pinouts, signals, and pairing for the Ethernet connector when wired for straight-through cable
according to T568B.
ICS LAN 10/100 Port
The ICS LAN 10/100 port on the left-hand side of the CPU is the access point for communication with devices on the
private
(ICS LAN) network. The port has a built-in DHCP server which serves IP addresses for the private LAN to endpoint devices.
LAN 100/1000 Port
The LAN 100/1000 (Ethernet) port, which provides the connection from the integrated NetLinx NX Master to a public LAN,
is located on the rear of the enclosure on the right-hand side of the CPU. The port handles Ethernet 10/100/1000
connections for 1000 Mbps (megabits per second), 100 Mbps, and 10 Mbps. This connection is compatible with most
Ethernet based LANs.
IMPORTANT:
Because the LAN 100/1000 port is the single, shared connection to the public LAN, a Gigabit (1000 Mbps) LAN
connection between the network and the Enova DGX Switcher’s LAN 100/1000 port is strongly recommended. Lower
speed connections may result in inferior performance of the embedded Ethernet network.
CAUTION:
The ICS LAN port acts as a DHCP server (private LAN) and the LAN 100/1000 port acts as a DHCP client (public
LAN) with each port on a separate network. In order to avoid a Network Loop, do not connect any device on one
network to any branch on the other network.

IP Protocols Used by the Integrated Controller
Protocol
Description
Standard Port #
FTP
The integrated Master has a built-in FTP server
21/20 (TCP)
SSH
The SSH port functions using the same interface as Telnet but over a secure shell where it uses SSL as
a mechanism to configure and diagnose a NetLinx system. This port value is used for secure Telnet
communication.
Note: Only SSH version 2 is supported.
22 (TCP)
Telnet
The NetLinx Telnet server provides a mechanism to configure and diagnose a NetLinx system. For
maximum flexibility, the Master can be configured to use a different port than 23 or disable Telnet
completely from either Telnet or the Program port on the rear of the Enova DGX Switcher. Once
disabled, the only way to enable Telnet again is from the Program port.
23 (TCP)
HTTP
The integrated Master has a built-in web server that complies with the HTTP 1.0 specification and
supports all of the required features of HTTP v1.1. This port is used for unsecured HTTP Internet
communication between the web browser’s UI and the integrated Master.
80 (TCP)
HTTPS/SSL
This port is used by a web browser for secure communication between the web server UI and the
integrated Master. This port is also used for simultaneous encryption of this data, using the SSL
certificate information on the Master as a key.
443 (TCP)
ICSP
The port is used for peer-to-peer protocol for both Master-to-Master and Master-to-device
communications. This type of communication is used by various AMX products for communication
among themselves (see page 204).
Note: The integrated Master can only be configured to use Port 1319, and the ICSP cannot be
disabled.
