Connecting to Network Ports, SEHI-22 and SEHI-24
You attach unshielded twisted pair segments to the RJ45 Network
Ports on the front panel of the SEHI. Each twisted pair port on the
SEHI incorporates a Polarity Detection and Correction feature. The
Polarity Detection and Correction feature allows the SEHI to pass
data regardless of the polarity of the twisted pair segment’s receive
link. Operating in this condition is not recommended and if this
condition is discovered, the segment should be removed from the
network and wired correctly by a technician.
