LAN Ports
The eight auto-negotiating 10/100 BaseT LAN hub ports are used for PC and server connectivity.
They can also be used to connect to the optional IP400 WAN3 Expansion Module and IP
telephones.
•
LAN ports allow information relating to incoming and outgoing telephone calls to be
forwarded to PC based applications. They also provide access to the router
functionality/configuration of the IP406 Office platform for both data and Voice over IP
(VoIP) calls. (Where IP telephony is required, the hub must be connected to a suitable
LAN switch with QoS capabilities.) This eight port auto-negotiating 10/100 BaseT LAN
hub supports a single MAC address only (printed on the base of the module).
•
Where more than eight LAN connections are required, the eighth LAN port can be used
for cascading to other hubs. The
Uplink
push button to the right of this port is used to set
the mode. When the
Uplink
switch is in the
out
position the port can be connected to
another hub without the need for a crossover cable, i.e. the port is an MDI type port.
When the
Uplink
switch is in the
in
position the port can be connected directly to a PC.
