cables. Both connectors are interchangeable.
This unit is powered by the network controller, via the
Praesideo system bus.
7.4.3 Connecting the CobraNet
network
Connect the CobraNet interface to the CobraNet
network using the Ethernet connectors and Cat-5
Ethernet cables. Use either one Cat-5 connection for a
normal Ethernet connection or two for a redundant
connection. Ethernet supports redundant connections
between switches using self-healing topologies. Each
connection has two indicators:
The right indicator shows green for Ethernet link
and flashing green for Ethernet activity.
The left indicator lights yellow on the port in use and
flashes yellow on the port in use if the interface is the
conductor.
