Charger
The MC3300x’s Charge LED or the spare battery LED indicates the status of the battery charging in the
MC3300x.
Daisy-chaining Ethernet Cradles
Daisy-chain up to ten 5-Slot Ethernet ShareCradle with 4-Slot Battery Chargers to connect several cradles to
an Ethernet network. Use either a straight or crossover cable. Daisy-chaining should not be attempted when
the main Ethernet connection to the first cradle is 10 Mbps as throughput issues will almost certainly result.
To daisy-chain 5-Slot Ethernet ShareCradle with 4-Slot Battery Chargers:
1. Connect power to each 5-Slot Ethernet ShareCradle with 4-Slot Battery Charger.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable to one of the ports on the switch and the other end to the Primary Port of the first
cradle.
3. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Secondary port of the first cradle.
4. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Primary port of the next 5-Slot Ethernet ShareCradle
with 4-Slot Battery Charger.
