Ensure the connections have the correct polarity as shown below. NOTES: • Extron recommends using the Power over Ethernet power supply. This 12 VDC, 1.0 A power supply should be used only for setup or troubleshooting.
CAUTIONS: • Always use a power supply supplied by or specified by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certification and may cause damage to the supply and the end product. • Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities.
Extron recommends using a Power over Ethernet (PoE) power supply. Use a straight‑through Ethernet cable to connect the power supply to a switch or router. This cable carries network information from the switch or router to the power supply input. A second straight-through cable carries the network information and 48 VDC from the power supply to the TLP 710MV. Connect the IEC power cord to a convenient 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power source.
