INSTALLING THE 860 XS PRO ETHERNET EXTENDER KIT
The Enable-IT 860X PRO Gigabit Ethernet Extenders have a distance restriction of 3,000ft (914m) over 1-pair
of copper wiring from device extension to device extension. You can add an additional 328ft (100m) onto the
end of each 860X PRO LAN output ports for a total distance of 3,656ft (1.1km) from device extension to device
extension.!
!
Therefore a site survey of the wiring and installation planning are highly recommended.!
!
For highest performance use 100Mhz or higher rated wiring for the interlink wiring connection.
We highly recommend that you perform a quick out of the box test to ensure the working order of your
Enable-IT 860 XS PRO Ethernet Extender units prior to installing. This will also serve to familiarize you
with how easy the process should be. Follow the steps below to perform the Out Of the Box Test.
Step 1 - Attach the 12V DC power adapter to each 860XS PRO unit and power up the units.
Each of the respective Power LEDs will indicate the units are receiving power.
Step 2 - Connect the 860XS PRO RJ-45 Interlink ports together using one of the Ethernet LAN Patch cords
provided – as shown by the green line connecting the ports in the diagram above.
On both units, the green Link LED will blink rapidly when it sees the partner unit and connects
successfully. The LAN Port LEDs will blink as they see passing traffic (data).
Step 3 - Next for a more detailed test and to confirm your LAN Equipment works with the 860XS PRO, connect
your Ethernet LAN to the 860X PRO Local unit LAN ports and the remote device/s to the 860XS PRO
Remote 4 LAN ports and test connectivity. Green Blink rapidly when it sees the partner unit –
indicates working connection – Green No LED indicates it cannot see the partner unit.
!
LAN/Power side LEDs
Mode – Green LED (LED On = CO unit, LED Off = CPE unit)
Link – Green Blink rapidly when it sees the partner unit – indicates working connection
– Green No LED indicates it cannot see the partner unit.
Power – Green Solid LED indicates the unit is receiving 12V power.!
!
LAN Sync. – Green LED
Off = No device attached or detected.
On = Solid, indicates the presence of local LAN.
LAN Act. – Yellow LED
Blinking = Indicates the presence of local LAN traffic.
The Green Link LEDs will blink rapidly when it sees the partner unit and connects successfully.
This confirms basic proper operation of the units.!

Performing the On-Site Installation
After removing the Enable-IT 860 XS PRO Ethernet Extender Kit from the box, and performing
the Out Of The Box Testing (OOTBT), all that remains to install the unit on-site is to mount the
unit, build the interconnect wiring, add voice lines if needed, and attach the LAN device cabling
with the provided Ethernet Patch cords.
Mounting the Enable-IT 860 XS PRO Ethernet Extender Units
The Enable-IT 860 XS PRO extended Ethernet solution is designed for quick wall mounting.
Choose a location to mount each of the Enable-IT 860 XS PRO’s where the maximum
distance does not exceed 3,000ft (915m) total between devices to be connected. When wall-
mounting the Enable-IT 860 XS PRO unit it is recommended that you use the appropriate screw
anchors for your mounting surface. If mounting on existing plywood use wood screws; if
mounting onto drywall or sheetrock, use plastic drywall anchors to secure your installation.
Building the 860 XS PRO Interlink Wiring
The most important aspect of the installation is the correct wiring of the Interlink cabling.
The 860 XS PRO Interlink port (RJ-45 Jack) carries this 1-pair signaling over the RJ-45 (pins 1
& 2) - and is used as the transport for Gigabit data.
For all wiring you will need to crimp a (LAN Standard) RJ-45 Male head to each end of the
contiguous wire run and using the following (pins 1 & 2) straight through. We recommend using
a category rated twisted pair cable as it is optimized for high throughput frequencies isolated
from cross-talk noise. Insert the completed RJ-45 ends into the 860 XS PRO Interlink port on
each 860 XS PRO unit (CO and CPE).
Cabling Devices to The Enable-IT 860 XS PRO Extended Ethernet Kit
Attach your remote LAN device to the 860 XS PRO CPE unit LAN ports with Ethernet patch
cord provided. Attach your local LAN to the 860 XS PRO CO LAN ports with Ethernet patch
cord provided. Attach the power adapters to both 860 XS PRO units.
Attach your local Interlink cabling end to the 860 XS PRO CO unit Interlink port – Then do the
same for the remote end and plug into the 860 XS PRO CPE unit Interlink port. The Sync LED’s
will flicker in a sequence talking to each other until they go solid. Your equipment should now
be powered up and functioning. LED indicators will provide visual operational status of the 860
XS PRO units.
Troubleshooting
First examine the backbone wiring pair and make sure you have solid connections. The Interlink
green Link LED will blink rapidly when it sees the partner unit and connects successfully. If the
Interlink Sync LED Link is off…. Then follow the steps below:

860X PRO CO
RJ-45 Interlink Cabling up to 3,000 feet / 915m

1) Make sure your wiring is straight through and not connected to any Telco punch down
blocks; If so remove from the block and use Telco butt clips to bridge wire.
2) Check for a firm connection of the RJ-45 connections in each 860XS PRO unit, and
power is applied to the 860XS PRO CO & CPE units.
3) You can easily isolate any issue by performing an Out Of The Box Test (OOTBT). This
test will confirm the correct working order of your Enable-IT 860 XS PRO Ethernet
Extender Kit. This will point to a possible issue with your long distance Interlink wiring
being affected by possible outside interference.
