Note: Networked (LAN) configurations can be internal configurations that do not
require internet access. However, if you are networking an instrument for Cloud
access, the LAN must have internet access.
IMPORTANT! For all wired configurations using an Ethernet cable, we support
DHCP or static IP only. Proxy servers are not supported.
• A networked computer can detect all instruments that are on the same network
and subnet mask.
However, the computer can only control one instrument at a time.
• All networked computers can detect each instrument that is on the same network
and subnet mask.
However, the instrument can only be controlled by one computer at a time.
Note: For detailed information about networking your instrument, see the
QuantStudio 3 and 5 Real-Time PCR Systems IT Checklist (Pub. No. MAN0013738).

The instrument:
• Is factory-configured for IPv4 TCP/IP communication and includes an Ethernet
adapter (100/1,000 Mbps) with an RJ45-type connector for integrating the device
into a local area network (LAN).
• Can alternatively be configured for wireless networking (High Power USB WiFi
Module required, sold separately as an optional accessory).
The instrument can be configured for either wired or wireless networking, not both.
If a Thermo Fisher Scientific service representative is to install the instrument:
• If the instrument will be connected to a LAN, an active, tested network jack must
be in place before the scheduled installation date.
• A representative from your information technologies department must be
available during the installation to help connect the instrument to your network.
Required materials to network the instrument:
• Wired—Ethernet cable of sufficient length with RJ45 connectors
– CAT5 cable for a 100 Mbps network connection
– CAT5e or CAT6 cable for a 1,000 Mbps network connection
–or–
• Wireless—High Power USB WiFi Module (Cat. No. A26774, sold separately)
