Basic Installation Guidelines

Options
Power
Power over Ethernet (PoE):
Connect the unit’s P0 port to an active, PoE-enabled network switch.
External power supply:
If not using PoE for power, connect a 12V regulated power supply (part number N9312) to the
unit’s two-pin terminal block plug connector l12V 2A.
Network
PoE units:
Using PoE to power the unit, you should already have a network connection.
Externally powered units:
If not using PoE, connect either the P0 or P1 port to the network using the appropriate
cable.
Daisy-chain conf iguration:
Once network connection is established to one unit, you can daisy-chain additional units by
connecting Ethernet cables between devices using their P0 and/or P1 ports. Keep in mind that the number of units
supported in this configuration is limited by bandwidth (total aggregate streams must be less than 1Gb/s).
NOTE:
PoE power is only supplied to the unit connected directly to the network. All other units in the daisy-chain must
have an external power supply.
Audio
•
For audio encoding, connect a line level analog audio source to the
Audio
input terminal block plug connector, or
•
For audio decoding, connect a line level analog audio source to the
Audio
output terminal block plug connector, or
