2.2.1 10Base-T RJ-45 Pinout

 

 

The 10BASE-T Ethernet network (RJ-45) system is used in the Meter for

network connectivity. The 10 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet system operates over

two pairs of wires. One pair is used for receiving data signals and the other pair

is used for transmitting data signals. This means that four pins of the eight-pin

connector are used.

2.2.2 10Base-T Crossover Wiring

When connecting the iServer directly to the computer, the transmit data pins of the computer should be wired to the receive data pins of the Meter, and vice versa. The 10Base-T crossover cable with pin connection assignments are shown below.

Figure 2.13 10Base-T Crossover Cable Wiring

Use straight through cable for connecting the Meter to an Ethernet hub. The ports on the hub are already crossed.
