1.2 Automatic Device Configuration
When data and power are sent via the two-wire cable, a (feeding) Mx2wire+ unit functions
as the sender while the other unit functions as the (data) receiver. The sender is the
Mx2wire+ unit that is supplied directly from the PoE switch. Communication between the
units is possible in both directions, as the ‘sender’ and ‘receiver’ roles always configure
themselves automatically.
