Ethernet Connector
The Ethernet connector is an RJ45, 10/100Base-T connector. The 
pinout for the connector is shown below.
Direct point-to-point 10/100Base-T cables, with cross over pin-out 
(1 to 3, 2 to 6, 3 to 1, 6 to 2), connect the InView communication 
module Ethernet port directly to another SLC 5/05 Ethernet port (or a 
computer 10/100Base-T port).
Cables
Category 5 shielded and unshielded twisted-pair cables with RJ45 
connectors are supported. The maximum cable length between the 
InView communication module Ethernet port and a 10/100Base-T port 
on an Ethernet hub (without repeaters or fiber) is 100 m (328 ft). 
However, in an industrial application, the cable length should be kept 
to a minimum.

WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
If you connect or disconnect the Ethernet cable with 
power applied to the InView communication module 
or any device on the network, an electrical arc can 
occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous 
location installations. Be sure that power is removed 
or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
