Connecting to a twisted-pair-cable transmitter
The projector has a function that can receive Ethernet signals from a twisted-pair-cable transmitter together with video and audio signals via a 
LAN cable.
Connect a LAN cable to the <DIGITAL LINK/LAN> terminal of the projector. (x pages 16, 21)

f
For the LAN cable between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, use a cable that meets the following criteria:
 
g
Compatible with CAT5e or higher
 
g
Shielded type (including connectors)
 
g
Straight-through
 
g
Single wire
 
f
The maximum transmission distance between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector is 100 m (328'1"). If this distance is 
exceeded, image and sound may be disrupted and may cause a malfunction in LAN communication.
 
f
When laying cables, check that cable characteristics are compatible with CAT5e or higher using tools such as a cable tester or cable 
analyzer.
When using a relay connector midway, include it in the measurement.
 
f
Do not use a hub between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector.
 
f
Do not pull cables forcefully.  Also, do not bend or fold cables unnecessarily.
 
f
To reduce noise, stretch out the cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector without any loops as much as 
possible before setting them up and using them.
 
f
Lay the cables between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector away from other cables, particularly power cables.
 
f
When installing multiple cables, run them side by side along the shortest distance possible without bundling them together.
 
f
After laying the cables, confirm that the [SIGNAL QUALITY] value in the [NETWORK] menu → [DIGITAL LINK STATUS] is displayed in 
green to indicate normal quality. (x page 89)

With some exceptions, operation with twisted-pair-cable transmitters of other companies is not guaranteed. For support of devices of 
other companies, refer to Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/).
