2.1.1.3 Ethernet Interface Description
SICAM Q100 is equipped with an Ethernet interface. The data are exchanged via the RJ45 Ethernet plug con-
nector located on the top side of the device.
Figure 2-3 RJ45 Ethernet Plug Connector
The Ethernet interface is characterized by the following parameters:
• Transmission rate: 10/100 Mbit/s
• Protocol: IEEE802.3
• Connection: 100Base-T (RJ45), pinout according to DIN EN 50173, automatic patch/
crossover cable recognition
• Connecting cable: 100 to 150 STP, CAT5 (shielded twisted-pair cable), max. 100 m if well
installed
SICAM Q100 features an internal Ethernet switch. It is therefore possible to connect a Y-cable (see device
manual, Accessories section) to the Ethernet interface in order to cascade devices with an Ethernet interface.
The internal Ethernet switch can be enabled or disabled in the parameterization.
