Router Control Panel Installation
Connecting Ethernet Cable to RJ-45 Port
Make an Ethernet connection to the RJ-45 port on the rear of the Router Control Panel. The Ethernet
cable should be connected to a network Ethernet router or switch to make it accessible to the Router.
The Ethernet port will auto-sense cable direction, so a cross-over cable is not needed.
A modular power supply is provided to power the Router Control Panel. Alternately, power can be
supplied by the Ethernet connection using PoE (Power over Ethernet), provided that you have a PoE-
enabled Ethernet switch to insert power into the Ethernet cables.
Long Distance Capability
Because the Router Control Panels connect to the Router over Ethernet, and because Ethernet reaches
much farther than coaxial cable, Router Control Panels can be physically located very far away from
the Router if desired. Therefore, you can install the Router Control Panels wherever you need them to
be located as long as you have Ethernet connectivity.
The Router Control Panel is only 1.8” (45mm) deep, so it can be installed in very shallow positions.

illuminating either red or green.

Power Input, and the 9-Pin GPI Connector.
