LAN port
— If desired, for IP control of the system, connect the matrix
switcher to a PC or to an Ethernet LAN, via this RJ-45 connector.
You can use a PC to control the networked switcher with SIS
commands from anywhere in the world. You can also control
the switcher from a PC that is running Extron’s Windows-based
control program or has downloaded HTML pages from the
switcher.
Ethernet connection indicators
— The Link and Act LEDs
indicate the status of the Ethernet connection. The Link LED
indicates that the switcher is properly connected to an Ethernet
LAN. This LED should light steadily. The Act LED indicates
transmission of data packets on the RJ-45 connector. This LED
should flicker as the switcher communicates.
Cabling and RJ-45 connector wiring
It is vital that your Ethernet cables be the correct cable type, and that they be
properly terminated with the correct pinout. Ethernet links use Category (CAT)
5e or CAT 6, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables,
terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet cables are limited to a length of 328’
(100 m).
N
Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables do not support Ethernet
or Fast Ethernet.
Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.
The cable used depends on your network speed. The switcher supports both
10 Mbps (10Base-T — Ethernet) and 100 Mbps (100Base-T — Fast Ethernet),
half-duplex and full-duplex Ethernet connections.
• 10Base-T Ethernet requires CAT 3 UTP or STP cable at minimum.
• 100Base-T Fast Ethernet requires CAT 5e UTP or STP cable at minimum.
The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover
cable and must be properly terminated for your application (figure 2-6).
