Installing ME-1

6.1 Mounting the unit

6.2 Cat5 cable

Use STP (shielded twisted pair) CAT5e or

higher cables. Those with both foil and

braided screens provide shielding from

interference and are generally more rugged.

Stranded core cables are less prone to

damage when kinked or repeatedly coiled.

ME-1 provides locking Neutrik EtherCon

sockets to protect the connections and

ensure suitability for touring. Use cables fitted

with locking EtherCon plugs.

Maximum length per cable

= 100m (330’)

6.3 Ethernet Switch

For parallel connection of multiple ME-1

mixers each with their own cable you can use

a standard off-the-shelf Ethernet switch.

Note Aviom® A-Net 16 is not compatible

with standard Ethernet switches.

An unmanaged 100 Mbit/s (Fast Ethernet) or

Gigabit switch is suitable.

Note The use of a 3-layer PoE switch is not

recommended.

For PoE (Power over Ethernet) either of the

two standards 802.3af (15.4W at source) or

802.at (25.5W at source) is suitable. Check

that the overall power rating is enough to

provide for all ME-1 mixers you wish to

connect (allow 15W per mixer).

The Allen & Heath ME-U hub provides PoE

and connections for up to 10 ME-1 mixers.
