InView Communication Module Connections 3-25
Ethernet Connector
The Ethernet connector is an RJ45, 10/100Base-T connector. The
pinout for the connector is shown below.
Direct point-to-point 10/100Base-T cables, with cross over pin-out
(1 to 3, 2 to 6, 3 to 1, 6 to 2), connect the InView communication
module Ethernet port directly to another SLC 5/05 Ethernet port (or a
computer 10/100Base-T port).
Cables
Category 5 shielded and unshielded twisted-pair cables with RJ45
connectors are supported. The maximum cable length between the
InView communication module Ethernet port and a 10/100Base-T port
on an Ethernet hub (without repeaters or fiber) is 100 m (328 ft).
However, in an industrial application, the cable length should be kept
to a minimum.

WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
If you connect or disconnect the Ethernet cable with
power applied to the InView communication module
or any device on the network, an electrical arc can
occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous
location installations. Be sure that power is removed
or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
