Setup
Network Wiring
When wiring the network, consider the following:
• Use Crestron Certified Wire.
• Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
• Provide sufficient power to the system.
CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results
or damage to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power
Calculator to help calculate how much power is needed for the
system (
www.crestron.com/calculators).
For networks with 20 or more devices, use a Cresnet
®
Hub/Repeater
(CNXHUB) to maintain signal quality.
