MFS-8; it must be connected to the Router in the LAN (Local Area Network). A standard network switch is used to connect the MFS-8 to the LAN. An MRX-10 doesn't have to be connected to the MFS-8, but can be connected to a standard network switch when convenient to do so.
Occasionally you get a retrofit installation where only one CAT5 wire has been run to a room, and there's no way to run another one. In this case, locate the MFS-8 in the Utility Room, Garage, or where ever the central distribution point for the Network is located, and install standard network switches in rooms where you plan to locate a DMS-1200, DMS-100 or SNP-1.
2. Can I connect both PoE (Power over Ethernet) devices like KP- 4000 keypads and Non-PoE devices to the MFS-8? No, you cannot use an MFS-8 to power Keypads or Cameras -- it is not PoE. 3. What if I have more than eight streaming devices? You can connect a standard network switch to the MFS-8 to expand the MAC Filtering capabilities of the MFS-8.
