Elspec | The Hardware

The BLACKBOX Portable has 3 fast Ethernet link 10/100Mb ports in addi-

tion to the wireless access point:

 Wide Area Network (WAN): Designed to connect the device’s internal LAN with

other types of networks. The most useful usage scenario would be connecting to the ex-

ternal Broadband router such as ADSL, Cable or Cellular for global, over Internet acces-

sibility.

 LAN1: The main Ethernet port with DHCP server configured as active. This port is the

main choice for a standalone PC or Laptop connection with the unit.

 LAN2/LCD: Direct connection port to the BLACKBOX device, bypassing the internal

router. This port is mainly suitable for connecting the unit with a local LAN of com-

puters.

The Wi-Fi Access Point

The BLACKBOX Portable contains an integrated IEEE 802.11g/b router pre-

configured as an industry standard access point. This is to provide the most con-

venient and simplest connectivity with the Mobile Analysis Lab or any other lap-

top or desktop Wi-Fi-enabled PC.

The internal Wi-Fi Access Point is configured by the factory default as an unse-

cure network. The SSID name is configured as EG4500_[device serial number].

The [device serial number] is a unique string which allows for distinguishing

among several available devices. The device serial number is located on the

name plate as shown below.
