PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Patton Model 460 Series allow 75 Ohm coax hardware to
communicate with 120 Ohm twisted pair equipment. The Model 460
Series specifically address the ONP requirement that European PTTs
offer 120 Ohm twisted pair terminations to their customers. Some PTTs
and private carriers are standardized on 75 Ohm coax, or have
customers whose CPE has only 75 Ohm coax connections. The Model
460 Series present a ready solution to this termination mismatch by
allowing a bi-directional conversion of coax (75 Ohm) to a twisted pair
(120 Ohm ), supporting data rates to E1 (2.048 Mbps). The signals
2
output by them are scaled to match the pulse shape requirements
specified by the CCITT G.703 standard.
The Model 460s come in the following versions (see below):
460 · A shielded RJ-45 jack.
· 460M:Two male coaxial connectors (i.e., center conductor is
a pin).
·460F:Two female coaxial connectors (i.e., center conductor is
a receptacle).
460-TBP
· A 4-position terminal block.
· 460M-TBP:Two male coaxial connectors (i.e., center
conductor is a pin).
· 460F-TBP:Two female coaxial connectors (i.e., center
conductor is a receptacle).
460MC
· Two male coaxial connectors at the end of a coax pigtail
cable. (i.e., center conductor is a pin).See photo on front
cover of manual.

RJ-45 Jack and Terminal Block Descriptions
Shielded RJ-45 Jack:
· Pins 1 and 2 are the balanced inputs. The balanced signals
are converted to an unbalanced signal on the center
conductor of the TX Out coax connector.
· The unbalanced signal from the RX In coax connector is
converted to balanced signals on pins of the RJ-45.
· The shield of the RX In connector may be connected to RJ-
45 pin 6 by jumper JP2 (on).
· The shield of the TX Out connector is always connected to
the shield around the RJ-45 connector. This connection may
also be connected to RJ-45 pin 3 via JP1 (on).
Terminal Block:
· Has a 4 pin terminal block for a twisted pair connection.
· The 460M has male coaxial connectors (i.e., center
conductor is a pin) and the 460F has female coaxial
connectors (i.e., center conductor is a receptacle).

CONFIGURATION
NOTE: The Model 460-TBP does not require configuration; go to
section “INSTALLATION” on page 2. The following section
describes configuring the Model 460. The Model 460 Series are pre-set
to work in most applications without additional configuration. The only
parameter that is user-configurable is the shield connection between
the 75 Ohm coax and 120 Ohm interfaces. The diagram on the
following page shows how the shield is connected between the modular
jack and dual BNCs. Removing the jumper breaks the connection.
The Model 460 is most often used to bi-directionaly convert CPE
twisted pair terminations to CPE coaxial terminations.
RJ-45 (120 ohm) Jumper Coax BNC (75 ohm)
Pin 3 (TX Shield)................ JP1......................TX Out Shield
Pin 6 (RX Shield).................JP2........................RX In Shield
The factory setting leaves both jumpers JP1 and JP2 (see figure
above) in place, thus passing both shield connections through. To break
one or both of the shield connections, follow the instructions on the next
page.
1) Insert a flat blade screwdriver into the slot on the side of
the Model 460 case and twist. The case will pop open,
exposing the PC board.
2) Holding the PC board with the modular jack facing left,
locate jumper JP1 toward the top of the board and JP2
toward the bottom of the board. Remove the desired
jumper(s) to break one or both shield connections.
NOTE: Do not lose the jumper(s).
3) Re-align the case halves and end inserts and snap the case
halves back together.

INSTALLATION
The sections on the next page describe installing the following:
· Model 460
· Model 460-TBP
Refer to the appropriate section on the following page to install
your unit.
Installing the Model 460
Do the following:
1) Refer to the pin configuration below when assembling the
cable that will connect to the RJ-45 jack.
RJ-45 Pin(s) Function
1 and 2................................TX pair
3.......................................TX shield
4 and 5................................RX pair
6......................................RX shield
2) Plug the modular cable connector into the RJ-45 jack.
3) Connect the coaxial cables to the TX Out and RX In
connectors. Congratulations, you have finished installing the
Model 460!
Installing the Model 460-TBP
Do the following:
1) Strip the outer jacket insulation from the twisted pairs about 1
inch.
2) Strip back the insulation on each of the wires about .25 inches.
3) Connect one pair of wires to the two XMT (transmit) positions
on the terminal block. The Model 460-TBP is not polarity
sensitive so either wire may connect to either pole.
See figure at upper right.
4) Connect the other pair of wires to the two RCV (receive)
positions on the terminal block.
5) Connect the coaxial cables to the TX Out and RX In
connectors.
