Connector and cable description
 | All the grounds from individual connectors are connected inside the camera. |
I/O Connector and Pinout
17-pin male M12 connector for digital i/o (optocoupler and TTL inputs/outputs) and power input.
 |  |
An adapter cable is available (see Section “Accessories”), with D-sub 25-pin female interface connector. The table below lists the pinouts also for the connectors of the adapter cable.

Pins 14, 19, 20 on the DP connector are not connected.
Pins 1, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9 on the RS232 D-sub 9 connector are not connected.
The cable carries following signals via twisted pair wires: ML0+/ML01, ML1+/ML1-, ML2+/ML2-, ML3+/ML3-, AUX+/AUX-, USB-/USB+.
All grounds are connected together.
Ethernet connector
8-pin female M12 Ethernet connector.
An adapter cable is available (see Section “Accessories”), with standard Ethernet connector, 8P8C modular plug, often also referred to as RJ-45.

Status LED
The CORSIGHT cameras are equipped with a set of status LED's. The positions of the LED's on camera's side is shown on the figure below. The purpose of the individual LED's (starting from connector side) is:
WLAN activity (blue)
User LED (green, software programmable)
Ethernet speed (green, still for 1GB, blinking for 100Mb Ethernet)
Ethernet link (orange)
Power (green)
SATA activity (orange)
