NETWORK SETUP
The DX8100 Series HVR supports remote viewing and administration in client-server and peer-to-peer configurations. The DX8100 is compatible
with the TCP/IP protocol and Fast Ethernet (1000Base-T) network connection. Consult your network administrator before installing the DX8100 to
avoid possible network conflicts.
For TCP/IP access, connect the DX8100 to a 100 Mbps or 1 Gigabit, switched Ethernet network. Use standard Cat5 or better UTP cable with RJ-45
connectors.
To configure the DX8100 hardware for network access:
1. Connect one end of the UTP cable to the network port on the back panel of the DX8100 as shown in Figure 10.
2. Connect the other end of the UTP cable to an available port on a standard Fast Ethernet switch.
