Connect to a site network using an Ethernet LAN

This section explains how to connect the Connect IT hardware and then connect to a site network, using an Ethernet WAN cable.

Prerequisites

• CAT 5/6 Ethernet cable, which must be purchased separately.
• The device must have the power supply and fan units installed in the device.

To connect the hardware and connect to a site network:

1. Plug the power supply unit into an AC power outlet and connect the other end to the Power plug on the Connect IT 16/48.
2. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to your site network.
3. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet ETH2 port on the Connect IT 16/48. By default a DHCP request will be sent to the local Ethernet network.
