2.3.3.2 Adapting the Ethernet Cable for Connecting to
BreezeACCESS SU-ODU
The 55 cm Ethernet cable supplied with the unit has crossed Ethernet
connections which have to be adapted for connecting the unit to a BreezeACCESS
ODU:
1 Cut the cable as close as possible to the connector that should be connected to
the ODU (the end without the service box).
2 Use a crimp tool for RJ-45 connectors to prepare the wires. Insert them into
the appropriate pins of the spare RJ-45 connector supplied with the unit and
use the tool to crimp the connector. Make sure to do the following:
Remove as small a length as possible of the external jacket. Verify that the
external jacket is well inside the sealing cover when connected to the unit,
to ensure good sealing.
Pull back the shield drain wire before inserting the cable into the RJ-45
connector, to ensure a good connection with the connector's shield after
crimping.
The cable should provide straight pin-to-pin connections on both ends.
Figure 2-10 shows the required wire pair connections:
