The '''Pass''' setting connects pin 8 of the two LCC jacks together so that power passes between them. The '''Output''' setting disconnects pin 8 from passing between the two LCC jacks and requires an external 15VDC power supply in order to feed up to 400mA of current independently into each LCC jack.		\|This jumper pair determines how power will be routed between the two LCC RJ-45 jacks (Pin 8 in the LCC CAN-bus Standard S-9.7.1.1).
