BMA CT

CONNECTING THE ARRAYS

Connect the BMA CT units to the CP2 unit via P-Link connections using

CAT6-24AWG solid conductor RJ45 cables.

The arrays must be powered by an external PoE source that supports

Mode B type power delivery. (A PoE Network Switch generally will not

work for this.) A PoE injector can either be connected to P-Link PoE port

on the rack-mounted CP2 unit, or it can be connected directly to the ar-

ray's PoE In port.

When driving 2x10W speakers, each array requires its own PoE injector.

When the PoE injector is connected to the CP2 unit's P-Link PoE port, the

CP2 unit's P-Link Out port will provide both power and data communica-

tions to the array. If the PoE injector is connected directly to the array PoE

In port, a second cable must be connected from the CP2 unit's P-Link

Out port to the array P-Link In port. (Note that the CP2 unit itself does not

provide PoE power without an external PoE injector.)
