4. Installations 4.1 Wall-mount Installation Step 1: Find a suitable wall to mount the LRE-101. Step 2: Screw two screws on the wall. Step 3: Hang the LRE-101 on the screws from the wall. Step 4: Repeat Step 5 of Desktop Installation for power supply to the LRE-101. 5V DC 10GBASE-T to 10GBASE -X Before mounting the device to the wall, please check the location of the electrical outlet and the length of the Ethernet cable.
4.2 Chassis Installation and Rack Mounting To install the Ethernet Extender in a 10-inch or 19-inch Converter Chassis with standard rack, follow the instructions described below. Step 1: Place your LRE-101 on a hard flat surface, with the front panel positioned towards your front side. Step 2: Carefully slide in the module until it is fully and firmly fitted into the slot of the converter chassis.
4.3 Optional DIN-rail Installation There are two DIN-rail holes on the left side of the LRE-101 that allows to be easily installed by DIN-rail mounting. PLANET optional DIN-rail mounting kit – RKE-DIN -- can be ordered separately. Refer to the following steps for the DIN-rail mounting of the LRE-101: Step 1: Screw the DIN rail on the LRE-101. Step 2: Now slide the DIN rail into the track. Step 3: Check whether the DIN rail is tightly on the track.
5. Applications The Ethernet Extender does not require any software configuration. Users can immediately use any feature of this product simply by attaching the cables and turning the power on. There are some key limitations on the Ethernet Extender. Please check the following items. 5.1 Point-to-Point Application -- LAN to LAN Connection One set of the Ethernet Extender could be used to link two local area networks that are located in different places.
