BRL-04AR
Basic Installation Procedure
Connect the LAN: Run an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN ports on
the front of the BRL-04AR to your computer's network adapter or to a
hub/switch or other network device.
Connect the WAN: Prepare an Ethernet cable for connecting the BRL-
04AR to a cable/DSL modem or Ethernet router.
Power on: Connect the power adapter to the BRL-04AR.
Attach to Your Network Using Ethernet Cabling
The four LAN ports on the BRL-04AR auto-negotiate the connection speed
(10 Mbps Ethernet or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet), as well as the transmission
mode to half duplex or full duplex. Use twisted-pair cable to connect any of
the LAN ports on the BRL-04AR to an Ethernet adapter on your PC.
Otherwise, you may cascade any of the LAN ports on the BRL-04AR to an
Ethernet hub or switch, and then connect your PC or other network
equipment to the hub or switch. When inserting an RJ-45 connector, be sure
the tab on the connector clicks into position.
Warning:
Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. This may damage
the BRL-04AR. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that
conform to FCC standards.
Notes:
Use 100-ohm shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cable with RJ-45
connectors for all connections. Use Category 3, 4, or 5 for connections that
operate at 10 Mbps, and Category 5 for connections that operate at 100
Mbps. Ensure that each twisted-pair cable does not exceed 100 meters (328
feet).
