Data Sent by the Conventional Ethernet Device is Not Received

The conventional Ethernet side does not have separate transmit and receive LEDs, so start 

by disconnecting the BroadR-Reach cable from the RAD-Moon. This will ensure that any 

flickering of the 

Activity

 LED indicates data received by the RAD-Moon from the conventional 

Ethernet device (rather than data the RAD-Moon is transmitting). If after doing this you do not 

see this LED lit, the device may not be transmitting, or there may be a problem with the regular 

Ethernet cable.
If the 

Activity

 LED is lighting up, reattach the BroadR-Reach cable to the RAD-Moon, and 

check the connection to the Automotive Ethernet device. Again, try a new cable if this is 

feasible.
If you are unable to resolve the issue, please contact Intrepid using the information below.

Difficulty Removing BroadR-Reach Cable from Mini50 Jack

Mini50 connectors can be troublesome to use for those not familiar with them. Be sure to press 

all the way down on the small tab in the middle of the cable connector before attempting to pull 

it out of the jack. Do not pull the plug out by the wires or you may damage the cable.
