MCN Network Note 1
Unlike most other MCN modules, the EXB-IP module does not inject power into the Network Out connector. It
also does not use any DC power from the Network In connector. All 8 pins on the Network In & Out connectors
are paralleled, so that any power from other modules will be passed through.
MCN Network Note 2
Although the MCN Network connectors are RJ-45s, THEY ARE NOT ETHERNET CONNECTORS. Because
the MCN network connectors on the front of the modules may have DC power on them from other MCN devices,
DO NOT CONNECT THE NETWORK IN OR OUT CONNECTORS TO ETHERNET PORTS. THIS CAN
DAMAGE THE ETHERNET DEVICE. The Ethernet cable should be connected to the 10BASE-T connector on
the rear of the EXB module.
