NetLinx Master Cards and Modules
ICSHub RJ-45 Connections/Wiring
The two ICSHub RJ-45 connectors on the rear of the Master Card provide data to other Hubs
connected to a downstream system. Hubs allow you to connect multiple NetLinx Hubs together in a
daisy-chain configuration. Connect the OUT port to the IN port on the second or downstream
NetLinx hub. The following table describes the pinout/signal information.
!
Use CAT5 cables for all ICSHub connections.
!
Do not connect the last hub in a daisy-chain configuration to the first hub.
