4.3. Pin-out and cable type
4.3.1. RJ45 connectors
On some of the Triton devices, the NCB cable can be connected to RJ-45 connectors. The following pin-
out is used:
Pin 1 = Not Connected
Pin 2 = Not Connected
Pin 3 = Not Connected
Pin 4 = data
Pin 5 = data
Pin 6 = Not Connected
Pin 7 = Not Connected
Pin 8 = Not Connected
4.3.1. 5-pin DIN connectors
However, the pin-out of most Network Control Bus ports, including BRS-0808, follows the standard
MIDI specification. A 1:1 cable with 5pin DIN connector is used. The following pin-out is used:
Pin 1 = Not Connected
Pin 2 = shield
Pin 3 = Not Connected
Pin 4 = data
Pin 5 = data
The standard MIDI specification recommends the use of shielded twisted pair cable types for
interconnection between the units.
