CHAPTER 5
Cable Reference
This chapter documents M-Series Processor and Camera cable assemblies.
Cables
The following cables connect different hardware devices to the Processor.
Processor Ethernet
An Ethernet cable (Part number 606-0457-xx) is used to connect the M-Series Processor to the camera and between the
Processor and any external network. The last two digits of the part number indicate the cable length in feet. We recom-
mend you use shielded Cat5e Ethernet cable or better to connect the camera and the Processor.
A crossover cable is not required because the Ethernet ports are auto-negotiating; that is they can tell the difference
between a peer-to-peer connection and a router/switch connection and they configure themselves and the communications
to suit the environment.
NOTE: We recommend that you do not use a switch or a router between the M-Series Processor and the camera.
Processor Input/Output
The terminal block and cable for connecting M-Series processor are listed in the table below. For connection diagrams,
see “Processor I/O Connection” on page 4-1. The last two digits of the part number indicate the cable length in meters.
Processor Power Supply Connector
This equipment is to be powered by a Listed power supply for the U.S. and Canada, or a power supply that meets the
requirements for use where either IEC 60950 or EN60950 is applicable.
See “MX20 and MX40 Processor Power Supply Connection” on page 2-9 or “MX80 Processor Power Supply Connec-
tion” on page 2-10 for more details on wiring the power supply cable.
