rEAr PANEL CONNECTIONS

H
H POWER CORD SOCKET: Connect the power cord here and then connect to a mains output
with voltage from 85V to 270V, 50/60Hz.
I LOCATE: Press this button to illuminate the Locate button on the front and identify the device
within the London Architect software.
J RS-232: This connection for external calibration and configuration unit is not active at this time.
K ETHERNET: This is the main connection for the proprietary system control network, and for
third-party Ethernet control. The SDEC must be connected to an Ethernet hub during the
calibration process.
L BLU-Link CONNECTORS: Connect these ports to other JBL Synthesis BLU-Link products to
enable BLU-Link to send and receive audio data. Please Note: When using the SDEC-4500X
or SDA Series amplifiers with BLU-Link you must connect the two units through the BLU-Link
connection, using a Cat. 5e patch cable.
M CONTROL INPUTS: The SDEC-4500P and SDEC-5500 can be configured for full-range or
bi-amp operation by using these control inputs. The SDEC-3500 does not need or use this
connection. The SDEC05500 may be configured for factory channel settings or an alternate
setting that enables 4 subwoofer outputs on the SDEC4500X analog expansion unit
N INPUT/OUTPUT CARD POSITIONS: These connectors provide the balanced and unbalanced
connections for the input/output card fitted in the four card slots in a JBL Synthesis SDEC
device. A green LED next to the slot assignment letter A, B, C or D indicates that an input
card is fitted and an amber LED when an output card is fitted. The analog connections are
balanced/unbalanced, on Phoenix/Combicon connectors. Depending on which model and
configuration you have purchased will determine which input/output card has been installed
at the factory. Please make certain that you have ordered the correct wiring kit for your
application and system configuration as designed and recommended by JBL Synthesis.
