Integration Scaling Matrix Switcher • Ethernet ConnectionA-2
The rear panel Ethernet connector (figure A-1) on the ISM switcher can be
connected to an Ethernet LAN or WAN. This connection makes SIS control of the
switcher possible using a computer connected to the same LAN.
Cabling
The Ethernet cables can be terminated as straight-through cables or crossover
cables (figure A-1) and must be properly terminated for your application:
• Patch (straight) cable — Connection of the ISM to an Ethernet hub, router, or
switcher that also hosts a controlling computer
• Crossover cable — Direct connection between the ISM and a controlling
computer
