Ethernet Cable Installation and Modification
In tabletop installations where concealing the Ethernet cable is desired, a hole at least 1.00” (2.54 cm) in diameter is required in
the surface to allow passage of the female RJ45 connector (FIG. 47). If using a smaller hole is unavoidable, you will need to
disconnect the Ethernet cable (
ECA5968-05
) from the device, to feed the male end of the cable through.
NOTE:
The minimum diameter hole through which the Ethernet cable may pass is 0.50" (1.27 cm).
To disconnect and reconnect the Ethernet cable on the MXT-700 and MXT-1000 to allow use of a hole smaller than 1.00” in
diameter:
1.
On a soft surface, turn the panel face-down to access the bottom of the device.
2.
Remove the clamp holding the Ethernet cable (FIG. 47).
3.
Remove the Ethernet cable connector and pull the cable out of the clamp.
4.
Pass the Ethernet cable (
ECA5968-05
) through the hole, with the RJ45 connector on the other side of the installation surface
from the device.
5.
Press the Ethernet cable back into the clamp.
Do NOT tighten the clamp at this time.
6.
Using a non-conductive item such as a wooden stick, reinsert the Ethernet cable connector into the device. Ensure that the
connector is properly seated.
7.
Tighten the clamp to secure the Ethernet cable.
Make sure the clamp is around the bundled black cable, not the individual wires
8.
Connect the RJ45 connector to its incoming Ethernet cable and apply power.
Uninstalling the MXD-1000
The MXD-1000 is held in place via latch hooks and clips in the Backbox.
In certain circumstances, such as firmware updates or other maintenance that requires accessing the device’s USB or Micro-USB
ports, the device may need to be removed from the Backbox.
The clips that lock down the MXD-1000’s bottom edge (Landscape) or right edge (Portrait) may be unlatched in order to remove
the device from the mounting surface.
Removing the MXD-1000 From Its Backbox
1.
The MXD-1000 has three rows of ventilation holes along the molding (FIG. 48):
