Hardware Description
① AC Power
IEC connector 100 - 240 V AC.
② Power Switch
Powers the unit on or off.
③ Output Block Connectors (1-8)
Three-pin, low-voltage differential connector provides a line-
, aux- or mic-level analog output for each channel.
④ Chassis Ground (1-8)
Use to directly ground the cable shield to the chassis.
⑤ Input Block Connectors (A,B)
Three-pin, low-voltage differential input connector adds line-
or aux-level analog signals to the digital network.
Note: This input is meant for balanced connection. If an unbalanced source is
used, such as an IPOD or MP3 player, only use pins 1 (signal) and 3 (ground) of
the block connector. See Specifications sections for wiring diagrams.
⑥ Reset Button
Press and hold the button for five seconds to reboot the
device with factory default settings.
⑦ Ethernet Status LED (Green)
• Off = no network link
• On = network link established
• Flashing = network link active
⑧ Ethernet Link Speed LED (Amber)
• Off = 10/100 Mbps
• On = 1 Gbps (required for digital audio routing)
⑨ Network Interface
Four-port gigabit switch for connecting components
together for a single MXW Group, or for connecting multiple
devices to a larger digital audio network. The following is a
description of each port:
Port Description
Port 1
(PoE)
Provides Power over Ethernet (PoE) for
the Shure access point and functions as a
standard gigabit port.
Ports 2
and 3
Standard gigabit ports enable the connection
of another MXW network, additional
MXWANIs, a MXWNCS charging stations or
an external control system.
Port 4
(Uplink)
• Normal mode (default): this port functions the
same as ports 2 and 3.
• Uplink Mode: only transports control data. This
mode blocks network audio and data for Shure
Web Discovery Application, Dante Controller and
Dante Virtual Soundcard.
