Head-end Installation ER8400: The ER8400U is a wall mount unit. When mounting the unit be sure to leave space
on the sides for airflow into the cooling fans and some space on bottom for the power cord.
Connect up the network outputs of the unit. The network ports are designed for connection with standard RJ45
Ethernet cables. The network ports are 10/100Mb speed and will run at the highest possible speed given the wire
conditions. The ER8400U can work as a standard network switch for Ethernet devices up to 100 meters. For longer
runs of up to 600 meters it can be combined with the ET1500U Transmitter. This system normally operates at
100Mb over 600 meters of 4 pair cable but can adjust for varying wire conditions. We refer to the cable between the
Head-end and the transmitter as the Link cable. The speed of the connection is indicated on the LED panel of the
unit. A transmitter or other network device must be connected at the far end of the Link cable for the connection
speed to be indicated.
