Section 2 — Installation
Nonredundant Frame 6101000xx
The RJ-45 serial connectors on this frame use pinouts that conform to an
off-the-shelf Cat 5e Ethernet patch (pin-to-pin) cable pinouts. Do not use
the patch (pin-to-pin) cables 174821700 for non-redundant cabling. Use
customer supplied cabling.
The customer supplied cabling from the Encore Control frame to the device
is not specified but here are a few guidelines:
• Use the shortest cabling practical for the installation,
• When using RJ-45 to D type serial adaptors, put the adaptor as close to
the device as possible, ideally connect the adaptor to the device, and
• Use Cat 5e Ethernet patch (pin-to-pin) type cabling with RJ-45 connec-
tors from the Encore Control frame to either the device or the adaptor
on the device.

Nonredundant Frame 6100884xx
The RJ-45 serial connectors on this frame use pinouts that do not conform
to off the shelf Cat 5e Ethernet cable pinouts. The crossover cables
174821600 are custom designed to change the pinouts from the noncon
-
forming (black connector end of the cable) pinouts at the Encore Control
frame to conforming pinouts (ivory connector end of the cable. See
Figure 35.
The length of the cables (20.32 cm, 8 in.)provided is the maximum length
supported for cabling from the Encore Control frame to a conforming RJ-45
coupler (female-to-female pass-though) connector.
