Plugging into an Ethernet Network
In most facilities, Videohub is usually shared via an Ethernet network switch so it can be
controlled by computers on the network as well as by Videohub control panels.
Videohub Master Control and Videohub Smart Control
Videohub Master Control and Videohub Smart Control connect to any Videohub via standard
Ethernet networking and can be powered over Ethernet or with an external power supply.
If your Ethernet switch does not provide power over Ethernet, use the included universal
power supply.
To connect a Videohub control panel to the local area IP based network:
1 Connect the included power supply to your Videohub control panel. You can skip this
step if your network switch provides power over Ethernet. No problem will be caused
by connecting the power supply and power over Ethernet at the same time.
2 Use the network In port on your Videohub control panel to connect to your network
switch with a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable.
3 You might also wish to connect another network device to the network Out port on
your Videohub control panel, such as a Videohub router, another Videohub control
panel or other network devices such as a computer or VoIP phone. The Out port does
not provide power over Ethernet and any network device connected to this port will
require its own power supply.
