Data Interface Connectors

Three types of data interface connectors are used on TS Wireless transceivers. The first, the LAN/ETH port (LAN on the AP, ETH on the remote), is a metallized RJ-45 connector. The other two are standard modular types—RJ-12 for the COM1 port, and RJ-45 for the COM2 port. This section provides illustrations and pinout information for all of these connectors.

Caution

RADIO INTERFERENCE POTENTIAL The transceiver meets U.S.A. FCC Part 15, Class A limits when used with shielded data cables not exceeding 3 ft./0.9m.

LAN/ETH Port

This port is used to connect to an Ethernet network at an AP or to the endpoint of a Remote.

▪To connect a PC directly to the AP LAN port, an RJ-45 to RJ-crossover cable is required. At the Remote, a straight-through cable is required.

▪To connect the AP to a Ethernet hub or bridge, use a straight-through cable.

The connector uses standard Ethernet RJ-45 cables and wiring. The pinout graphic and table below may be used to construct a custom cable, if required.
