Installation 39

To connect the Cat.-5 LAN cable to the Deskset:

With a PC:

If there is a networked computer and no extra Ethernet wall jacks near the Deskset, then

plug the PC Ethernet cable into the Deskset so the Deskset and PC share the same

network connection.

1. Unplug the Cat.-5 Ethernet cable from your computer.

2. Plug that Cat.-5 Ethernet cable into the Network port on the back of the Deskset, as

shown below.

3. Plug another Cat.-5 Ethernet cable into the PC port on the Deskset.

4. Plug the other end of the second Cat.-5 Ethernet cable into your computer.

 If a GigE network is being used, a computer connected through the Deskset will

be limited to 100 Mbits/s. If you require a GigE Ethernet rate, use separate

Ethernet connections for the Deskset and the computer so that the computer can

take advantage of the greater bandwidth.

 If a PC is connected to your LAN through a Deskset, any Deskset resets and

power or network interruptions will disrupt the PC’s connection to the network.
