DL-EP1 connector port

The DL-EP1 connector port accepts an RJ-45 8-pole modular connector (ISO8877
compliant) used with 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX and complies with the IEEE802.3
Standards.

Precautions for connecting a STP/UTP cable to the DL-EP1 connector port

Take care not to apply a load to the DL-EP1 connector port when connecting the
STP/UTP cable to the DL-EP1.

„

Connecting the DL-EP1 to EtherNet/IP

The following describes how to connect the DL-EP1 to the RJ-45 connector.

1

Turn off the power supply.

2

Connect one modular jack of the STP/UTP cable to the 10BASE-T/

100BASE port of the Ethernet switch to be used.

Insert the modular jack until a "click" is heard. The modular jack and connector
will lock.

Keep the length of the STP/UTP cable to be used 100 m or less.
Carefully check the state of connector (port) on the Ethernet

switch before connecting the DL-EP1. There are various Ethernet
switches. Some Ethernet switches have a different shape
connector (AUI connector or BNC connector, etc.) from the RJ-45,
while some have connectors used to connect Ethernet switches
together (cascade ports).

3

Connect the modular jack on the other end of the STP/UTP cable to the

DL-EP1 connector port.

Insert the jack until a "click" is heard. The modular jack and connector will lock.

The cable may be bent and used when installed. Bending the cable

at a sharp angle may cut the wires in the cable or the cable may be
disconnected during use. Install or lay the cable to be used with

attention to the recommended bending radius R of the cable.
