RJ-45 Connections
The CAT-5 T568A wiring stan-
dard shown on the right is used
for the RJ-45 terminations.
Keypad Wiring
For the UNO-S2 keypad, the following connec-
tions are used to terminate the CAT-5 wire to the
110 punchdown on the keypad:
CAT-5 WIRE COLOR

• To determine the amount of CAT 5 wire
required for the system installation, first
decide how many keypads will be used, then
determine the distance between each intend-
ed keypad location to the intended CAV6.6
location. The maximum recommended wire
run length is 250 feet for each UNO-S2
Keypad.
• Make sure that the entire wire path
between keypads and CAV6.6 is clear and
not obstructed by a floor ceiling joist, or
masonry wall which can’t be drilled through.
• Confirm ahead of time that you can drill an
outlet hole easily and in an unobtrusive spot
to connect wires with the CAV6.6.
• Label wires with keypad and room location.
This simplifies CAV6.6 hook-up once the key-
pads and speakers are installed.
• If you plan to use an additional IR receiver
with an UNO-S2 keypad, first determine the
location of the IR receiver, then measure the
distance from the intended location to the
UNO-S2 keypad location. Incorporating
optional IR receivers will require additional
wire. Consult the selected IR receiver
model’s manual for the specific wire needs.
Speaker Wiring
• Standard 16-gauge 4-conductor stranded
speaker wire can be run up to to 125 feet;
14-gauge wire can be run up to 250 feet.
• When running wire, pay particular attention
to the following areas:
• Avoid locations concealing pipes, heating
ducts and AC wiring in the general vicinity.
• Avoid running wires close to house electri-
cal wiring for any distance. If you have to run
them parallel, make sure to space the wires
at least two feet from the AC line.
