Installing the N2615-WP Wallplate Encoder:
Follow the steps below to mount your new N2615-WP Encoder into an existing three
gang electrical box. The instructions given assume the box is already installed with
Ethernet access running to it.
1. Connect the PoE-enabled Ethernet cable to the rear connector of the N2615-WP
Encoder. This provides both network and power connection to the Encoder.
2. Place the N2615-WP Encoder 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 Encoder.
I M PORTAN T: Encoders must be securely mounted and connected to the switch before
attaching the remaining cables.
NOTE: Any switch handling the N2615-WP Encoder video stream must be configured to
support jumbo frames. Disable the wireless adapter on your computer (it must be hard-
wired to the switch).

Establishing Connection
N2615-WP Encoders 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 N2615-WP Encoder 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.
