INSTALLING THE 860 PRO ETHERNET EXTENDER KIT
The Enable-IT 860 PRO Ethernet Extenders have a distance restriction of 6,000ft (1,829m) over
1-pair of Category 2, up to 4-pair CAT5e / CAT7, wiring from device extension to device
extension. Therefore a site survey of the wiring and installation planning are highly
recommended. For highest performance use CAT5e rated or higher spec for interlink wiring.
Perform an Out Of The Box Test (OOTBT)
We recommend that you perform a quick out of the box test to ensure the working order
of your Enable-IT 860 PRO Ethernet Extender units prior to installing. This will also serve
to familiarize you with how easy the process should be. Using one of the Ethernet patch
cords provided, attach it to the Interlink port of each 860 PRO unit.!
Power up both 860 PRO units using the provided secure locking 12V DC adapter. The
Green Sync LEDs will start flickering slowly and then fast as the units talk to each other.
After a few seconds you should see a solid Green Interlink Sync LED on each unit to
confirm a link is established. This confirms basic proper operation of the units. Next for
a more detailed test and to confirm your LAN Equipment works with the 860 PRO,
connect your Ethernet LAN and remote device to the 860 PRO LAN ports and test
connectivity. The Green Interlink Sync LED will pulse rapidly as it detects traffic.
LED indicators will provide visual operational status of the 860 PRO units.
Mode – Yellow Solid LED
Off = CO unit
On = CPE unit!
Sync – Green slow to fast flicker LED on power up – indicates negotiation of a link
– Green solid LED indicates link established and rapid pulse is traffic!
Act – Yellow LED
Off = No device attached or detected
On = Solid, indicates the presence of local LAN
On = Blinking, indicates the presence of local LAN traffic!
Power – Green Solid LED indicates the unit is receiving 12V power

Performing the On-Site Installation
After removing the Enable-IT 860 PRO Ethernet Extender Kit from the box, and performing the
Out Of The Box Testing (OOTBT), all that remains to install the unit on-site is to mount the unit,
build the interconnect wiring, add voice lines if needed, and attach the LAN device cabling with
the provided Ethernet Patch cords.
Mounting the Enable-IT 860 PRO Ethernet Extender Units!
The Enable-IT 860 PRO extended Ethernet solution is designed for quick wall mounting.
Choose a location to mount each of the Enable-IT 860 PRO’s where the maximum distance
does not exceed 6,000ft (1,829m) total between devices to be connected. When wallmounting the Enable-IT 860 PRO unit it is recommended that you use the appropriate screw
anchors for your mounting surface. If mounting on existing plywood use wood screws; if
mounting onto drywall or sheetrock, use plastic drywall anchors to secure your installation.
Building the 860 PRO Interlink Wiring!
The most important aspect of the installation is the correct wiring of the Interlink cabling.
The 860 PRO Interlink port (RJ-45 interface) carries this 1-pair signaling over the RJ-45 (pins 1
& 2) - used as transport for 240Mbps VDSL2 data. If you use more than 1-pair of wiring, such
as a CAT5 segment, the remaining RJ-45 pins can transport native 802.3af PoE, or are unused.
For all wiring you will need to crimp a RJ-45 Male head to each end of the contiguous wire run
and using the following (pins 1 & 2) straight through. We recommend using a category rated
twisted pair cable as it is optimized for high throughput frequencies isolated from cross-talk
noise. Insert the completed RJ-45 ends into the 860 PRO Interlink port on each 860 PRO unit.
Cabling Devices to The Enable-IT 860 PRO Extended Ethernet Kit!
Attach your remote LAN device to the 860 PRO CPE unit LAN ports with Ethernet patch cord
provided. Attach your local LAN to the 860 PRO CO LAN ports with Ethernet patch cord
provided. Attach the power adapters to both 860 PRO units.
Attach your local Interlink cabling end to the 860 PRO CO unit Interlink port – Then do the same
for the remote end and plug into the 860 PRO CPE unit Interlink port. The Sync LED’s will
flicker in a sequence talking to each other until they go solid. Your equipment should now be
powered up and functioning.
LED indicators will provide visual operational status of the 860 PRO units.
