Decoder. This provides both network and power connection to the Encoder.
2. Place the N2625-WP Decoder into the box and secure it with six screws (included
in shipment).
3. Check LEDs for normal display (see the LED table at right).
4. Attach the (customer-provided US model only) front cover plate to the unit to
complete installation.
Attaching Signal and Control Cables
The following table explains how to attach cables to the front of the Decoder.
I M PORTAN T: Decoders must be securely mounted and connected to the switch before
attaching the remaining cables.
NOTE: Any switch handling the N2625-WP Decoder video stream must be configured to

Establishing Connection
N2625-WP Decoders are shipped with DHCP as their default IP mode. The IP address is
assigned automatically based on the network DHCP server. If no DHCP server is found,
the unit will use Auto IP mode instead (with a default IP address of 169.254.xxx.xxx).
Before using your N2625-WP Decoder unit, it must be configured using the free N-Able
device management software. However, you will not be able to configure units until
they are in the same subnet as the host computer. The sample steps below show how
the required changes (to the host computer's IP settings) are made in a Windows
environment.
