Color Key Code
On the RVON-16 card, Telex has provided a color key code and knock-outs for digits 1-8 to ensure a compatible connection
between cards. The RVON-16 card color is blue, and inserts into a blue coded backcard only.
Addresses and the RVON-16 Card
Because the RVON-16 has an Ethernet interface, it is required to have a MAC (Media Access Control) address. This is a low
level address that contains 48 bits. Do not confuse this address with an IP (Internet Protocol) Address. In order to be IP
compliant, all cards must have a unique MAC ID when shipped from the manufacturer. Typically, the MAC ID of a piece of
hardware, such as the RVON-16 card, has a fixed or static address. Whereas, the RVON-16 card’s IP Address can change over
time.
The MAC Address uniquely identifies each node of a network and interfaces directly with the network media. The RVON-16
has a small 8-pin serial device on the board that the processor can read the unique MAC Address from. For more information,
on MAC IDs, contact technical support.
