Connecting the IP-EXT Card
Refer to the following example to connect the IP-EXT card to the LAN.
When the IP-EXT card is connected to the LAN for the first time, you must assign IP addressing information
to the card. Refer to "4.1 Programming the IP-EXT Card" for instructions.
Notes
•
Use an Ethernet straight cable with an RJ45 connector to connect the IP-EXT card to a switching
hub. The cable should be a 100BASE-TX CAT 5 (Category 5) or higher cable.
•
Before connecting the IP-EXT card, attach a ferrite core (included with the card) to the cable.
•
Make sure to set the port of the switching hub that connects to the IP-EXT card to operate under
"Auto Negotiation" mode.
•
When using the VLAN feature on the network, make sure that the IP-EXT card is connected to a
layer 2 switch that is IEEE 802.1Q compliant, and that is configured for VLANs. In addition, the port
of the switching hub to which the IP-EXT card is connected must be set to "Untagged". Consult
your network administrator for details.
•
To use a KX-NT265, make sure that the Local Processor (LPR) software of the IP-EXT16 card is
as follows:
–
PIPEXT Software Version 1.001 or later.
–
PVOIPEX Software Version 1.011 or later.
1.
Wrap the cable once around the ferrite core, leaving 5 cm (1-15/16 in) between the ferrite core and the
connector.
2.
Close the case of the ferrite core.
