Connection Options
You can connect an MP access port directly to an MX switch port or indirectly to
MX switches through an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. In either case,
use Category 5 (CAT 5) cable with straight-through signaling for each MP
connection.
You also can provide data link redundancy by connecting both of its ports directly
to MX switch ports or indirectly to MX switches through the network.
You can provide MX management redundancy even on a single MP Ethernet port
by connecting the MP indirectly to multiple MX switches through an intermediate
Layer 2 or Layer 3 network.
Note. Install the Cat 5 cables for the MP access point at the installation site
before installing the access point itself. During installation, you will insert the
Cat 5 cable(s) into the MP port(s) before attaching the access point to the
bracket.
