Instruction Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair Transmitters/Receiver
Twisted Pair Cable Pinouts
The pinout in FIG. 26 is for twisted pair cable that connects to the ICS LAN 10/100 connector or to the DXLink
connector
on the Transmitters and Receivers.
Use either the T568A or T568B pinout specification for termination
of the twisted pair cable used between the modules in a standalone setup or between Transmitters and Receivers
and an enclosure in a full system.
In a typical installation, the cables should be stretched to their full length between Transmitters and Receivers and the
enclosure or between modules in a standalone system. Service loops or coils of the cable may reduce the overall cable
performance and should be minimized whenever possible.
