Local Area Network (LAN) Connection
In order to connect the HD over IP w/ RS-232 and 2-way IR to a Local Area Network (LAN),
both the Sender and Receiver unit must rst be set to DHCP or static IP mode. DHCP
mode will use the DHCP server to automatically assign an IP address for each Sender and
Receiver unit that is connected to the network. Static IP mode will allow the IP address
for each Sender and Receiver unit to be congured manually. Contact your network
administrator if necessary.
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the LAN port on both the Sender and Receiver unit
directly to the router. Each cable that is connected to the router should not exceed
330 feet (100 meters) in length.
2. Access the Web interface for the Sender unit by entering its IP address in the address
bar of the Web browser. If the IP address is not known, see Displaying the IP Address
(page 7).

Important!
This product requires a Gigabit switch that supports 8k jumbo frames in order
for multicast mode to function correctly. If the LAN is not exclusively dedicated
to this product, then a managed switch is highly recommended.
