An RJ45 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connector can be connected to an Ethernet network with a UTP
category 5 cable that is shorter than 100 meters (based on the usual Ethernet standard).
9 & 10: General I/O terminal block
The VPort 2141 provides a very flexible general I/O interface that can be used with security
devices, such as sensors, alarms, lighting fixtures, and door locks. Two green connectors are
included in the package to connect external devices. The general I/O terminal block has 26 pins
for device control. These pins can be divided into three categories based on their function,
including power source, RS-485, and digital input and output.
