Remark: When using a shielded wire (conductive), the shield should be attached
on one side to earth (⏚) of the installation housing.
Note! The last Orion on the communication line must be provided of an EOL
jumper.
6.1.2 Using an adapterboard
When it is not possible to use a standard UTP cable between the Orion and the Network
controller, an adapter board can be used.
A direct connection (without using an adapterboard) between the Orion and a Polyx™ is NOT
possible when:
Orion and Polyx™ are installed in different buildings and thus the connection
leaves the building or
the wiring is no UTP cable (CAT5 or CAT6) or
an existing (non UTP) cable is reused or
overvoltage protection is required
Standard UTP CAT5 is used between an adapterboard and Polyx™
