4 WIRING AND CONNECTIONS
4.1 1G Ethernet/LAN
The AC-MXNET-CBOX PORT 1 MENTOR LAN/CONTROL port is a standard 8-pin RJ-45 female connector
port that uses 1G data bandwidth to connect any network compliant device to transmit its data onto
the Ethernet network.
The recommended termination is based on TIA/EIA T568A or T568B standards for the wiring of the
twisted pair cables:
4.2 AV NETWORK
The AC-MXNET-CBOX MXnet (PoE) AV NETWORK port uses a standard RJ-45 port complying with IEEE
802.3 Ethernet standards. This port is used for communication with the MXNet AV over IP Network,
powering the endpoint devices and AC-MXNET-CBOX via PoE, and connects to any 1 Gigabit Ethernet
port on the MXNet 1G network switches.
The MXNet endpoint devices (encoders and decoders) use an Ethernet connection from their 1GbE
NETWORK port with PoE from the 1 Gigabit Ethernet port of the MXNet network switches.
