A.3 MAXIMUM CABLE LENGTH vs. WIRE GUAGE

The cables connecting the Server to the Console units also supplies the operating
power.  The wire guage used for this connection determines the maximum distance the
Console unit can be installed from the server.  Standard flat telephone cable is either 24
or 26 guage and is generally satisfactory.  If the max cable length is exceeded, it may
be necessary to use a separate power supply for the Console.

Wire Guage

Max Length

   22 AWG

   350 ft

   24 AWG

   225 ft

   26 AWG

   150 ft

A.4 EXTERNAL POWER (IF REQUIRED)

External power to the VCR-2020 Console requires 12 VDC@ 1AMP through a
standard low power connector (subminiature phone jack, tip positive).
