SQ-6 and AR2412

SQ SQ General Discussions

Hey,

Is there a special boot up order or additional setup required to make the SQ-6 see the AR2412? I’m using a CAT6 cable and have tried many other CAT5/CAT5e cables and they won’t see each other.

Thanks in advance,

Will a UTP CAT5/CAT6 cable work at all, or is an STP cable required?

I have as yet connected a 2412 to a SQ. But have sold systems that have and they worked fine. I’m getting ready to do an install soon with SQ6, 2412 and 168. I have done many QU and GLD. No problems. I’m wondering if you have a problem 2412. Or even SQ.

As for cable. I’ve used various cables 5 & 6. I usually use 6 shielded for installs. Haven’t had any issues even pushing limits on distance.

Hi Gary:

I have both the AB168 and the AR2412 and have used both successfully with various lengths of shielded and unshielded Cat5/6 cable.

Since your post, I tried various power-up sequences and it did not matter … the SQ readily recognized the remote boxes.

I think I got a bad AR2412…Ugh.
