Back Panel Description
Following are descriptions of the items on the back panel:
Item Description
10/100 BaseT Ethernet
Connector (RJ45 connector)
The RJ45 connector uses a standard 10/100BaseT
pin out. The connector auto-negotiates the level
requirements; it automatically sets the network media
support level.
Note:
Cabling between 10/100baseT nodes is usually
through a network hub. To make a direct
10/100baseT connection between a 300-24 and a PC,
use a standard ethernet crossover cable.
DB9 Serial Port
(configuration management)
Enables you to configure the 300-24 using the RS-232
Serial Port Interface. Only Data Transmit, Data
Receive, and Ground are used (pins 2, 3, and 5
respectively) - straight-through cable.
Antenna Connector Enables you to connect an antenna to the 300-24. You
must use an N-Type connector for all antennas.
Note:
All antenna installation work shall be carried out
by a knowledgeable and professional installer.
Ground Screw Enables you to attach a bared 18 gauge or better
ground wire to ground the unit. You would use this
grounding when the ground provided by the power
cable is not adequate or does not meet the user’s
installation requirements.
