5.0 Cabling

As a LAN terminal, please follow all the worldwide standards for 10BaseT cabling. Ensure that hubs are used when

needed for 10BaseT.

As a serial terminal, the SpotLine M110 Terminal uses industry standard 4-wire or 6 -wire RS232C cabling. It is strongly recommended that you use cabling appropriate for your environment to minimize noise, errors and other interference. In particular, properly shielded and grounded cable should be used wherever possible, and that all outdoor cables (even for short runs), be properly enclosed in grounded, metallic conduit.

In addition, care should be taken to not run cables adjacent to transformers, air conditioners, refrigerators or other devices that generate a lot of electromagnetic interference.
