Input and output pin assignments and wiring
TP connectors
It is essential that your cables (on the XTP and LAN [Ethernet] connectors) be the correct
type and that they be properly terminated with the correct pinout. These links use
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated with RJ-45
connectors. XTP and LAN cables are limited to a length of 330 feet (100 m).
NOTES:
Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables do not support Ethernet
or Fast Ethernet.
Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.
The cable used depends on your network speed. The switcher LAN port supports both
10 Mbps (10Base-T — Ethernet) and 100 Mbps (100Base-T — Fast Ethernet), half-duplex
and full-duplex Ethernet connections. Input and output boards support 100Base-T only.
10Base-T Ethernet requires CAT 3 UTP or STP cable at minimum.
100Base-T Fast Ethernet requires CAT 5e UTP or STP cable at minimum.
The TP cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover cable and must
be properly terminated for your application (see figure 19).
Crossover cable — Direct connection between the computer and the XTP II matrix
switcher
Patch (straight) cable — Connection of the XTP II matrix switcher to an Ethernet LAN
and connection to the input and output board XTP connectors.
A cable that is wired as T568A at one end
and T568B at the other (Tx and Rx pairs
reversed) is a "crossover" cable.
A cable that is wired the same at both ends is
called a "straight-through" cable, because
no pin-pair assignments are swapped.
