CAUTION 
If Matrix-2000™ is connected to a CBX with a BM100 Backup Module, 
then the Matrix-2000™ 9-pin Auxiliary port connector cannot be used for 
communication (i.e. configuration through VisiSet™). In this case use the 
Auxiliary port 9-pin connector inside the CBX. 
5.3  RJ45 8-PIN CONNECTOR (ETHERNET) 
In Matrix-21XX models a RJ45 Modular Jack is provided for Ethernet connection. This 
interface and the connector pinout (see the following table) are IEEE 802.3 10 BaseT and 
IEEE 802.3u 100 BaseTx compliant. See par. 5.7 for connection details.
