Epica DGX 32 Instruction Manual
Linking Multiple Enclosures
Linking an Epica DGX 32 enclosure to multiple enclosures with BNC connectors is done in a daisy
chain (see the instructions on the previous page and daisy chain off the T-connector).
Linking an Epica DGX 32 enclosure to more than two enclosures with RJ-45 link connectors requires a
Multi-Port Switch and RJ-45 cables (see Cable Length Requirements table and instructions below).
Linking an Epica DGX 32 enclosure to enclosures with different types of link connectors requires a
Multi-Port Switch, RJ-45 cables (check Cable Length Requirements table below), a Media converter,
and RG-58 coax cable (see instructions below and on the next page). If this type of system has multiple
10Base-2 (BNC) enclosures, only one enclosure needs to be attached to the Multi-Port Switch with a
Media Converter. The rest of the enclosures can be daisy-chained off the T-connector.
Cable Length Requirements
Note: If you have questions regarding cabling or network related issues in conjunction with using
a Multi-Port Switch (or hub) for linking enclosures, contact your network administrator.
To link an Epica DGX 32 enclosure to a Multi-Port Switch:
1.
Insert one end of the RJ-45 cable into an Enc Link (RJ-45) Ethernet port on the Epica DGX 32
enclosure.
2.
Insert the open end of the RJ-45 cable into the Multi-Port Switch.
3.
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 using RJ-45 straight-through patch cable for other types of enclosures with
10Base-T (RJ-45) ports.* Go to page 26 for enclosures with 10Base-2 (BNC) ports.
* Applies when linking an Epica DGX 144, Epica DG, Optima, Optima SD, or a Precis SD to a
Multi-Port Switch
