About the Included Cable
The included cable is a 10Base-T “straight”
cable with secure latching system.
Note: The included cable is for connecting
the VC-12 to VOX BUS-compatible equip-
ment. Do not use it for any other type of
connection.
If you need to buy a replacement, or addi-
tional cable, contact your VOX dealer. Alter-
natively, you can use a standard 10Base-T
computer network cable. Make sure you get a
“straight” cable, not a “crossed” cable.
Warning: Using a 10Base-T “crossed” cable
will damage the connected device and
invalidate your warranty.
