Power and Control Connections
a
AC power connector — Plug a standard IEC power cord from a 100 to
240 VAC, 50 Hz or 60 Hz power source into this receptacle.
b
LAN Ethernet port — Connect the switcher to an Ethernet LAN or
WAN via this RJ-45 connector. Ethernet connection allows the operator
to control the switcher from a remote location. When connected to an
Ethernet LAN or WAN, the switcher can be accessed and operated from a
computer running a standard Internet browser.
Ethernet connection indicators — The LEDs marked “Link” and “Act” indicate
the status of the Ethernet connection. The green Link LED lights when the SMX
is connected to an Ethernet LAN, and the amber Act LED flickers, indicating data
transmission as the devices communicate.
NOTE: Do not use standard telephone cables, as they do not support Ethernet or fast
Ethernet. Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.
Choosing a network cable
Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 3, 4, 5, 5e, 6, or CAT 7 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or
shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet cables are
limited to 328 feet (100 m).
The cable used depends on the network speed. The SMX supports both 10 Mbps
(10Base-T — Ethernet) and 100 Mbps (100Base-T — fast Ethernet), half-duplex and
full-duplex, Ethernet connections.
•
10Base-T Ethernet requires, at a minimum, CAT 3 UTP or STP cable.
•
100Base-T fast Ethernet requires, at minimum, CAT 5 UTP or STP cable.
