Setup The Handset - RCA IP162 Manual

Note: If inline power (i.e. Power over Ethernet) is provided, do not install the AC adap-
tor. Make sure the Ethernet cable and switch/hub are PoE compliant.
The IP address of the base is assigned dynamically by default. Make sure the
router's DHCP server is on.
When the base is powered up, the amber led will be amber colored. Once the net-
work connection is established, the led will turn off. When the base obtains the IP
address, the amber led will light up again.
