Standard straight-through CAT5 cables may be used for this purpose.
Up to 200m of cable run between the panel or AES source and the
AES-6-RJ interface or between the AES-6 interface and the matrix at a
48K sample rate is possible using 24AWG cable. If 26AWG cable is
used the maximum cable run will be less than 200m.
Note: As the matrix connections are non-isolated the AES-6
interface must be sited local to the matrix and on the same
mains supply.
The specification for the coaxial cable required to connect panels to
the AES-6-CX card is given below.
Table 2-6: Coaxial Cable Specification
This type of cable will allow up to 500 metres of cable run between the
AES-6-CX interface and the panel at the standard 48K sample rate.
