REAC Connections
For the REAC connections:
• Using Cat5e cables, connect the REAC port on the S-1608/S-0816 units to ports on the REAC
splitter S-4000-SP or the switching hub.

The cable length from each REAC device to the REAC Splitter S-4000-SP or the switching hub must not
exceed 100 meters. If you need to extend the cable length of a particular REAC device connection
beyond 100 meters, a separate REAC splitter or switching hub must be used in-line. See “REAC Cable
Length Extension” in Chapter 6 for more information.
As mentioned earlier in the manual, some switching hubs have ports that allow the use of either
crossover or straight-through cables—they will detect the type of cable that’s connected and adjust
the signal transfer accordingly. Consult the documentation for the switching hub to determine what
type of cables can be used.
