Controller/Keypad Connection - Russound X5 Installation Manual

CONTROLLER / KEYPAD CONNECTION
The MDK-C6 keypad is designed for use with our popular C-Series controllers
and XStream™ X5, and connects to a keypad port on the rear of the X5.
Connections are made using CAT-5e with RJ-45 connectors using T568A wire
confi guration. For a clean installation when wiring from a keypad port, use
a CAT-5e patch cable to connect from the keypad port to a RJ-45 wall plate
(optional). Using the same T568A RJ-45 wiring confi guration, use CAT-5e cable
from the wall plate to the keypad. The maximum CAT-5e cable length is 250
feet between the controller and the keypad.
If more keypads are desired for a zone, use an optional SA-ZX3 keypad
splitter with a Russound 1201A (12VDC 1A) power supply at the controller end.
All keypads on an SA-ZX3 control the same zone. More detailed information
regarding SA-ZX3 installation and operation can be found in its installation
manual.
