The rear panel contains the following connectors and green LED
status indicators (from left to right of the unit):
•PC
RJ-45 socket for connecting to the Ethernet port on the host PC.
• Up Link and Down Link
4-pin Lemo sockets for connecting to and synchronizing additional
MX Links.
Use these sockets for connecting multiple MX Link units in
Vicon MX architectures where the number of cameras plus
alternative devices is greater than 32. Two to four MX Nets can
be connected to each MX Link. Each MX Link then connects to a
separate PC, and all PCs are networked together. For details on
the MX Net, see Chapter 7 MX Net. For details on the MX Link—
MX Net cable, see Chapter 11 MX Cables.
Important
The Up Link and Down Link functionality is not currently supported in
Vicon MX systems. If you require this functionality, please contact Vicon
Motion Systems or your nearest agent or distributor, who can help you to
identify suitable options.
