READER INSTALLATION OVERVIEW AND WIRING CONSIDERATIONS
Wiring and Power Considerations:
• Wall Wart power supply. (included)
• The power supply requires a dedicated outlet.
• Power Over Ethernet. (POE)
• POE provides power through the network cable, and reduces cable clutter.
• When providing POE, the maximum LAN cable length must not exceed 100 meters (328 Feet).
• Both the POE switch and PR5000 must be installed within the same building or structure.
• A CAT-5 cable must be connected between the POE switch and the port on the PR5000. (RJ-45)
