Connecting the Power Injector
To connect the MP-620 to a power source:
1 Connect the Ethernet cable from the MP-620 to the RJ-45 port labeled
“Output” on the power injector.
2 Connect a straight-through unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable from a local
LAN switch to the RJ-45 port labeled “Input” on the power injector. Use
Category 5 or better UTP cable for 10/100BASE-TX connections.
Caution! Do not install the power injector outdoors. The unit is for indoor
installation only.
Note. The MP-620’s Ethernet port does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE)
based on the IEEE 802.3af standard. Do not try to power the unit by connecting
it directly to a network switch that provides IEEE 802.3af PoE. Always connect
the unit to the included power injector module.
Note. The RJ-45 port on the power injector is an MDI port. If connecting
directly to a computer for testing the link, use a crossover cable.
