What you were probably looking for: Ethernet 1 What you were probably looking for: Ethernet.If you keep to the standard stuff, you're OK. Then it becomes dangerous to use some of these "custom" wirings because you could start destroying your equipment. It gets confusing because other people start using the extra pins for various reasons and there is no longer any standards. It can go through standard network hubs and switches and routers. It does not need a dongle, just an Ethernet network connector at the back or side of your computer. E1.31 always has the same pinout and the same connectors and is standard network wiring and has a CAT 5 connector at each end. It takes one USB to DMX dongle for each DMX network.ģ. Most US installations use the XLR style of connector for theatre and commercial applications and the CAT 5 connector is used mostly in Europe but many DIY people are using it in the US these days. DMX always has the same pinout, but there are two different connectors. One dongle is needed at the start of each LOR network.Ģ. LOR network always has the same connectors and the same pinout: 4 & 5 are the network data, and 3 is power Positive, 6 is power Ground, 1,2, 7, & 8 are not used. You might be getting confused with the THREE different kinds of networks ġ. They will tell you when you have a miswire before it can do any damage.īottom line: I highly recommend always sticking to the T568B wire color standard, but again, the key is always do it the same time, every time and test the cables before you use them. Think of even the cheap ones as continuity testers on steriods. They testers are like cars - all different costs and features. The key is to always do it the same way every time and use a LAN cable tester immediately after wiring as a minimum. ) Electricity doesn't know what color insulation it's using.

He're the ground truth, and it may draw fire from others, but it doesnt really matter what your color code is, as long as you keep pairs together and you're consistent in linking the corresponding pins of each connector together every time (Pin1 to Pin1, etc. If you always use that one, you'll never have any trouble down the line if you later choose to split off as start doing something a little more exotic later or start using factory cables at some point. Nearly all the factory cables I buy use this T-568B standard. (Just like the resistor color code spec, after a few hundred, you'll never be able to get that code out of your head ever again.) I've included a quick photo of jacks which nearly always have the two standards printed right on the side of the jacks. (Basically its Left-right with the latch pin downward/Pin1 to Pin8: Orange/white, Orange, Green/White, Blue, Blue/white, Green, Brown/white, brown). There are two standard color coding specifications commonly used for RJ-45 connections in the IT industry, the most common, and the one I ALWAYS use for normal patching/wiring/etc is T-568B and is available with a simple web search. If you choose that route, I think your color coding may be a little off spec, but you could really get away with just about any color code you want as I'll explain later, but that's not recommended. Max-Paul's suggestion to think plain old Ethernet is spot on. Unicast is better for smaller displays up to 7 universes, but multi-cast will certainly work too.Īs for the pinouts, for clarification, let's qualify my statements by saying that this discussion is sticking with the plain ethernet cable configurations, no dual wiring, no loopback cables, no crossover cables, etc. Yes, S3 will drive LOR and E1.31 commands simultaneously. 066, could you shoot me your reference for your color code? I'd like to look at it.
