Feature
Description
A
USB connector. Used to upgrade the firmware in the FS II-TA.
B
Base/Matrix connector. This RJ-45/etherCON connector is used to connect
the bi-directional signal from the Base station, directly or via the splitter. Up to
1,000 metres (3,200 feet) of 4-pair 24AWG shielded Ethernet cable (CAT5/5e/6)
can be used for this connection between Base station and transceiver/antenna.
If 26AWG cable is used the maximum distance is 500 metres (1,600 feet).
C
DC in power connector. This connector is used to locally power the
transceiver/antenna with the supplied universal power supply. Use of local
power is required when the transceiver/antenna is located more than 300
metres (925 feet) from the FS II Base station or the splitter, and is
recommended even when the transceiver/antenna is closer whenever it is
available and convenient.
D
Data signal/Power LEDs. This amber LED indicates that a connection has
been established between the Base station and the transceiver/antenna, and
that it is actively creating a coverage zone within which the beltpacks can
operate.
A flashing amber LED indicates that a data connection has been established
with the Base station. A solid amber light shows that there is a DECT
synchronization lock between the devices. A solid light is required for normal
operation of the system.
Power LED. This green LED indicates that the transceiver/antenna is receiving
power, either from its local power supply or from the connected CAT-5 cable
