Full details of connector types, pin-outs, and specifications can be found in the “Technical
Data” section. Briefly, these are as follows:
a DC power connector — The VNC 200 requires a 12 VDC regulated power supply via
this connector. A suitable power supply unit (PSU) is provided.
CAUTION: Unless otherwise stated, the power supply unit is not suitable for use
in air handling spaces or in wall cavities.
b Audio SPDIF connectors — Two female RCA connectors for input or output/
loop-through of digital audio signals through S/PDIF coaxial cables.
NOTE: Loop-through means that the input is output unprocessed. This feature
only applies to an encoder or a codec configured as an encoder. It does
not apply to a decoder.
c LAN network connectors (1 and 2) — Two female RJ-45 connectors are used
to connect the VN 200 to an Ethernet network. Typically, port 1 is used for data
streaming and device configuration (using the web interface). Port 2 is reserved for
future use and special applications.
d Keyboard connector — Connect the keyboard to the PS/2 port.
e Mouse connector — Connect the mouse to the PS/2 port.
f PC keyboard connector — Connect the VN 200 PS/2 keyboard port to the PS/2
keyboard port of the PC.
g PC mouse connector — Connect the VN 200 PS/2 mouse port to the PS/2 mouse
port of the PC.
h DVI-I out/loop connector — Connect the computer monitor to the female DVI-I
output/loop-through port.
NOTE: Loop-through means that the input is output unprocessed. This feature
only applies to an encoder or a codec configured as an encoder. It does
not apply to a decoder.
i DVI-I input connector — Connect the DVI-I output port of the computer to the
female DVI-I input port.
j Remote serial connector — This male 9-pin communications port is typically used to
configure the VN 200.
k RS-232 serial connector (over LAN) — This male 9-pin port is typically used to
transmit and receive data across a network.
