Wiring the Local Area Network (LAN) Port

Wire the connector as shown in the tables below.
• For 10Base-T (10 Mbps) networks, use a Category 3 or better cable.
• For 100Base-T (100 Mbps) networks, use a Category 5 cable.
• Use a straight-through cable to connect to a switch, hub, or router.
• Use a crossover cable to connect directly to a computer.

Wiring for IR Control

If you intend to control the display device via infrared (IR) commands from the PC1, wire
an Extron IR emitter to a 3.5 mm, 2-pole captive screw connector (provided), and plug the
2-pole connector into the IR Signal and Ground pins (pins 3 and 4) of the shared captive
screw connector on the rear panel.
Alternatively, you can wire the IR emitter to pins 3 and 4 of the provided 4-pole captive
screw plug (and, if desired, also wire a contact closure device to pins 1 and 2 of the same
4-pole connector; see
4-pole connector into the rear panel Input/IR connector.
The PC1 provides enough current to power one IR Emitter up to 4000 feet, or up to four
emitters for 100 feet each (see figure 7, below).

T568A
A cable that is wired as T568A at one end
and T568B at the other (Tx and Rx pairs
reversed) is a "crossover" cable.

4000 feet (1574.8 m) Maximum
The PC1 can power a single IR Emitter
up to 4000 feet, or four emitters wired
in parallel up to 100 feet each.
Wiring for IR Control via an IR Emitter
Place the head of the IR emitter over or directly adjacent to the IR receiver of the
controlled device.
