Cabling and RJ-45 connector wiring
It is vital that your Ethernet cables be the correct cables and that they be properly
terminated with the correct pinout. Fast 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 328' (100 m).
N Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables will not support
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.

The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover
cable and must be properly terminated for your application (fi gure 2-6).

The RS-232 Secondary port is active only if the front panel Confi guration port is
not in use. If a front panel confi guration connection is made, the
rear panel RS-232 Secondary port becomes inactive and the front

rates.
See Selecting the RS-232 Primary port's baud rate in
chapter 3, Operation, to confi gure the RS-232 Primary port from the front
panel.
See Command/Response table for IP SIS commands, in chapter 4,
SIS Programming and Control, to confi gure all ports under SIS control.
See chapter 4, SIS Programming and Control, for defi nitions of the SIS
commands (serial commands to control the switcher via this connector) and
chapter 5, Matrix Software, for details on how to install and use the control
software.
If desired, connect an MKP 2000 or MKP 3000 remote control panel to the
switcher's RS-232 connector. Refer to the MKP 2000 Remote Control Panel
User's Manual or the MKP 3000 Remote Control Panel User's Manual for details.
Ethernet port — If desired, 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 either running Extron's
Windows-based control program or that 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 fl icker as the switcher communicates.
Ethernet or Fast Ethernet.
Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.
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.
Crossover cable — Direct connection between the computer and the
matrix switcher.
Patch (straight) cable — Connection of the matrix switcher to an Ethernet LAN.
