Installation and Configuration
Before installing the TAP-213, make sure that all items in the package
checklist are included in the box. In addition, you will need access to a
notebook computer or PC equipped with an Ethernet port. The TAP-213
has a default IP address that you must use when connecting to the
device for the first time.
Step 1: Select the power source
The TAP-213 can be powered by a DC power input or PoE (Power-over-
Ethernet).
Step 2: Connect the TAP-213 to a notebook or PC
Since the TAP-213 is provided with the MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing
capability, you can use either a straight-through cable or crossover
cable to connect it to a computer. When the connection between the
TAP-213 and the computer is established, the LED indicator on the TAP-
213’s LAN port lights up.
