Configuring the Base Station
This section provides you with information on how to connect the base
station to an IP DECT Server 6000 and how to configure the base station
through the web-based user interface using either DHCP or a static IP
address.
This section includes information about:

9.1 Powering up the Base Station
After installing the base station you need to power it up. The base station
uses:
●
Power over Ethernet (PoE 802.3af).
●
Maximum power supply consumption is 3.0W (IEEE 802.3af class 1
device).
Use a standard PoE adapter or a PoE-enabled port on a switch adhering
to PoE 802.3af when connecting the base station to a PoE power
source.
9.2 Connecting a Computer to the Base Station
The base station itself has the IP address
192.168.0.1
from factory
default settings. The computer communicates with the base station either
through a cross-over patch cable or through a network with an identical
net mask.
)
The LAN port of the base station is an RJ45 connector.
To connect the computer to the base station:
1. Connect the LAN cable or cross-over patch cable to the PoE switch.
2. Connect the LAN cable or cross-over patch cable to the Ethernet
connector on the base station.
3. Connect the PoE switch to the computer.
)
If the base station has been used, reset it to factory default settings such that its
IP address reverts to
192.168.0.1
9.3 Accessing the Base Station
Before accessing the user interface of the base station, communication
between the computer and the base station has to be set up by changing
the IP properties of the computer to IP address:
192.168.0.2
and Subnet
mask:
255.255.255.0
in Windows.
The procedure for doing this is identical to that for the Server 6000, and
is described in section 8.3.
