The Model 1070RC is wired as a DCE (Data Communications
Equipment). Therefore, it wants to connect to a DTE (Data Termination
Equipment). If your RS-232 output device is a DTE, use a
straight
though cable
to connect to the Model 1070RC. If your RS-232 output
device is DCE, call Patton Technical Support at 301-975-1007 for
specific installation instructions.
4.4 TWISTED PAIR CONNECTION
The Model 1070RC operates full duplex over two twisted pair.
In
all
applications, the twisted pair wire must be 26 AWG or thicker,
unconditioned, dry metallic wire. Both shielded and unshielded wire
yield favorable results. Note: The Model 1070RC can only
communicate in a closed data circuit with another Model 1070RC. Dialup analog circuits, such as those used with a standard Hayes-type
modem, are
not acceptable.
For further information about acceptable
wire grades, please refer to the diagrams in Appendix B.
4.4.1 Point-to-Point Twisted Pair Connection
The 6-position RJ-11 and 8-position RJ-45 jack options for the
Model 1070RC (always the
upper
jack on the rear interface card) are
prewired for a standard TELCO wiring environment. Connection of a 4wire twisted pair circuit between two or more Model 1070RCs requires
a
crossed over cable
as shown in the figures below and on the
following page.

Notice! Any terminal cable connected to the Model
1070RC must be shielded cable, and the outer shield must
be 360 degree bonded–at both ends–to a metal or
metalized backshell.
