CAP MX Overview
CAP MX Hardware Options
The following sections describe hardware options for the CAP MX.
Single Mounting Bracket
The Single Mounting Bracket (CommScope PN 7841793-xx) provides the mounting brackets required to
mount an CAP MX to a wall or other vertical, flat surface. See "Mount a CAP MX Using a Single Mounting
Bracket” on page 32 .
Dual Mounting Bracket
The Dual Mounting Bracket (CommScope PN 7839331-xx) provides the mounting brackets required to
mount two CAP MXs back-to-back in a single bracket, which is then mounted to a wall or other vertical, flat
surface. See "Mount Two CAP MXs Using a Dual Mounting Bracket” on page 38 .
Table 2. Function of the CAP MX Connectors and LED
REF # Label Description Function
1 A RJ45
Auxiliary Port
Connects to external Ethernet devices such as WiFi and IP cameras. Cabling is via the
appropriate CAT cable for the protocol; this model supports a 1000 BASE-T and 802.3at Class 3
Power over Cat6A Ethernet connection. Maximum attached cable length is 3 meters (9.8 feet).
For information on the Auxiliary port in cascades, see "CAP MX Installation and Cascade Rules”
on page 20 . Port A ships with factory-installed EMI/weatherproof plug and must remain plugged
if not in use. (Graphic shows the port populated with an OCTIS Ethernet connector PN 7760652
which must be ordered separately—see "OCTIS™ Kits” on page 8 .)
2 2 Optical Port 2 If the CAP MX is functioning as a Primary CAP MX in a cascade, Optical Port 2 connects to Optical
Port 1 of the Secondary CAP MX via the Optical OCTIS Kit (PN 7770612), which ships with the
unit, to provide the main signal interface. Optical transport occurs over Single Mode Fiber (SMF)
or Multi Mode Fiber (MMF). To transport up to 480 MHz of RF bandwidth, install two optical
fiber cables in parallel (see Figure 1 on page 5 ). Port 2 ships with factory-installed
EMI/weatherproof plug and must remain plugged if not in use. Graphic shows the OCTIS
connector in blue; one Optical OCTIS Kit ships with each Fiber CAP MX (see "OCTIS™ Kits” on
page 8 ).
3 1 Optical Port 1 Connects to a Classic CAN or TEN (possibly through a local Hybrid Fiber Junction Box) and
provides the main signal interface; if Secondary CAP MX in a cascade, Optical Port 1 connects to
Optical Port 2 of the Primary CAP MX. Optical transport occurs over Single Mode Fiber (SMF) or
Multi Mode Fiber (MMF). Uses the Optical OCTIS Kit (PN 7770612), which ships with the unit.
Port 1 ships with a dust cap that can be discarded upon unit installation. Graphic shows the
OCTIS connector in blue.
4 Unlabeled Power LED See "Power the CAP MX” on page 62 .
5 Unlabeled Grounding
bolts
Connects the CAP MX to an approved earth-ground source.
6 MAINS Power
connector
(Vac or Vdc)
Connects to any of the following (graphic shows the port populated):
• Vac—Main power
• Vdc—Remote DC power supply or a Hybrid Fiber Junction Box.
7 ANT 4.3-10 RF
connector
Transmits and receives signals to and from distributed antennas. For models with two antennas,
connects to two separate external antennas or to two ports on a cross-polarized dual antenna
via 50  coaxial cable. Each connector supports two RF bands; see "Connect the CAP MX to an
RF Antenna” on page 54 . This RF port can be connected directly to an antenna (using RF jumper
cables) or through splitters, allowing additional antennas to be fed by the CAP MX.
