FreeSpeak Edge | User Guide
transceivers of the same type on one card. This eliminates the possibility of beltpacks roaming
between cards.
When using a single E-IPA card, FS II and FS Edge transceivers can co-exist on the same card
(up to 64 transceivers on one card).
Transceivers can be allocated to particular E-IPA cards in the EHX software. See image below.
3.8 Connecting the FreeSpeak Edge transceivers to a matrix
The FS Edge transceiver connects to an E-IPA-HX card in an Eclipse HX Digital Matrix.
You can connect transceivers to one of the LAN ports (LAN 1 - 6) on the E-IPA card. The
default connection for an AES67 network (IP transceivers) is LAN 3. For a fiber connection,
connect the IPT to LAN 5 or 6.
Warning: Do not connect more than one cable from the E-IPA card to the same LAN/VLAN.
This may lead to a broadcast storm and could seriously degrade the performance of your
network.
l Transceivers cannot be added to the matrix until at least one beltpack is configured in
the EHX software.
l Each E-IPA-HX card can connect to up to 64 IP transceivers (FreeSpeak II or FreeSpeak
Edge). Each transceiver can connect up to 10 beltpacks.
l The total number of beltpacks depends on your E-IPA-HX card license.
