Feature Overview
Ethernet Ports and USB Ports
The unit has three Ethernet ports and two USB ports on the back.
Ethernet Ports and LEDs
The gigabit Ethernet ports are on RJ-45 connectors, with LEDs to indicate the status of the
connection. They each provide a 10/100/1000 BaseT auto-negotiated Ethernet connection on a
standard network pinout.
There are three Ethernet ports. The
0/1 Camera
port is for IP camera networks.
The
0/0 Network
is the primary network port and the
0/2 Network
is redundant.
All network communication defaults over the primary network port. If the connection on the
primary port is lost, network communication switches to the redundant port and a health alert is
sent.
While using the redundant network port, the recorder monitors the primary port. When the primary
port becomes available again, the system reverts back to the primary port.
Important:
If managing this recorder with Command Enterprise, when setting up the
Network
tab
of the Command Enterprise Console, you must ensure that the primary network address is listed
first in the
Published Addresses
list (at the top of the list). For more information, see the
Command
Enterprise Installation Guide
, available from the March Networks Partner Portal website.
Ethernet port LEDs
Each Ethernet port has colored LEDs that indicate the connection status.
•
Amber LED (on): A link is established but there is no activity.
•
Amber LED (off): There is no link or there is activity on the established link.
•
Green LED (on): A 1000 BaseT link is negotiated on the port.
•
Green LED (off): A 10/100 BaseT link is negotiated on the port.
Two Rear USB Ports
Two USB ports provide connections for external peripherals, provide up to 0.5 A per
port to power peripherals with a USB cable, and support USB 2.0.
