handy box.  After the connection is made, make sure to close the handy box with the cover provided. 
The audio wires should be a two conductor wire with recommended 18 AWG wire.

Three Light Indicators: 

 

 
 
When RJ45 connection is made, you should be seeing some lights blinking on 
the right side of the RJ45 connection handy box as shown.   
 
From top to bottom, it will be Power, Dante, and Status. 

 

 

 Power:  This shows the power coming from PoE+ network switch.  If there is no power present,  

then the light will not turn green.  The speaker must be running from PoE+ network switch 
in order to get the green light. 

 

○ 

Dante: This will blink red in the beginning as it is trying to connect with the computer system. 

When connection is made and Dante signal is confirmed, the light will turn green.

 

 
○ 

Status: As the audio signal gets transmitted into the speaker system, the light will blink green as  

the signals go through. 

 

The connection should be 
made Cat5 or above cable for 
the Ethernet connection.
