in the switching system. For illustrations of switching systems with a local server, see Figure 2.8
on page 17.
To connect a local server to the AMX switch:
1. Choose an appropriate IQ module and insert the connectors into the corresponding ports on the
back of the server.
Some IQ modules also provide audio and serial connectors, which may be left unconnected if
this functionality is not required for the switching system.
2. Attach one end of a UTP cable into the RJ-45 port on your IQ module. Attach the other end of
the cable to an RJ-45 server port on the AMX user station.
3. Note the unique identifier (UID) on the back of the IQ for future reference.
Connecting a User Station for Switch Redundancy
You may attach a second AMX switch to an AMX5111, AMX5121 or AMX5130 user station to
benefit from switch redundancy in the event of a single switch failover. Figure 2.9 on page 20
illustrates attaching a second AMX switch to an AMX user station.
NOTE: In a switch redundancy configuration, connection to a local server is not supported.
To connect a second AMX switch to a user station:
1. Attach one end of a UTP cable into an RJ-45 port on the AMX user station.
2. Attach the other end of the cable into an RJ-45 user port on the AMX switch.
NOTE: In a dual matrix switch configuration, port 1 of the user station is the default port used for connection and
configuration changes.
