For more information on the IF2 GPIO interfaces, see "About the GPIO Interfaces" on page 84. Connects the reader to a 12 volt DC power source. Connects the IF2 to a desktop PC for configuration. Use an RS-232 null modem cable (P/N 059167). 10BaseT/100BaseTx port that connects the reader to your Ethernet network. The reader auto-negotiates with the server to set the best data rate. This port uses MDI/ MDI-X auto-switching so you can connect either a standard Ethernet cable or a crossover cable. The Ethernet port also supports POE. To use POE you need an 802.3at compliant power converter. For more information, contact your sales representative. 6 IF2 Network Reader User Manual

IF2 Port Descriptions
Port
Description
GPIO
General purpose input/output (GPIO) port that
connects the IF2 to industrial controls such as relays or
indicators.
For more information on the IF2 GPIO interfaces, see
“About the GPIO Interfaces” on page 84.
DC power
Connects the reader to a 12 volt DC power source.
COM1
Connects the IF2 to a desktop PC for configuration.
Use an RS-232 null modem cable (P/N 059167).
Ethernet
10BaseT/100BaseTx port that connects the reader to
your Ethernet network. The reader auto-negotiates with
the server to set the best data rate. This port uses MDI/
MDI-X auto-switching so you can connect either a
standard Ethernet cable or a crossover cable.
The Ethernet port also supports POE. To use POE you
need an 802.3at compliant power converter. For more
information, contact your sales representative.
