IR and Power Connections
The K2 keypad can be connected
using either CAT-5 or shielded 4-
conductor, 22-gauge 2-twisted-pair
cable. The maximum recommended
cable length is 250 feet for either
type of cable. See page 15 for the
wiring color codes for both cables.
• When using shielded 22/4 cable,
use one twisted pair for power
and ground, and the other twist-
ed pair for status and IR signal.
Always leave the shield open at
the keypad end .
• When using CAT-5 cable, do not
connect the Orange/White and
Green/White to GND (ground) at
the K2 keypad.
