1.5 Recommended Best Practices
• Terminate with standard RJ-45 connectors. Avoid using push-through or “EZ” type ends, as
these have exposed copper wiring at the tips that can cause signal interference.
• Cable terminations should be consistent with T568A or T568B. Avoid mixing terminations such
as going from T568A to T568B, and vice versa.
• Remove as little of the sheath as possible.
• Handle cables with care. If you need to pull, don’t pull too hard as this may cause the wire pairs
to untwist and can degrade cable performance.
• Use zip ties to neatly, but loosely, bundle the cable runs together to reduce tangling. Avoid
tight zip ties, clamps, and staples.
• Stay organized, label each cable run on both ends to indicate the location of the inputs and
outputs.
• Do not overbend cables. ¼ inch cable ratio = 2” bend radius.
• Keep network cables away from power sources.
1.6 Third-Party Control Systems
MXNet supports third-party control systems with drivers readily available to download, allowing for
further customizable programming and commands to integrate with MXNet. Be sure to successfully
install and connect your MXNet system to the network first before integrating it with a third-
party control system.
Supported drivers for third-party control system can be located at Support.AVProEdge.com
