Step 1

Connecting Cables

The following describes how to connect the various cables to the Mediatrix 4104. 

Before you begin, make sure that you have a working network connection. Then follow these steps to install the Mediatrix 4104.

1.

Before you begin, be sure that the Mediatrix 4104 is 

powered off.

2.

Connect the power cord to its connector on the Mediatrix 

4104. Do not connect the other end of the power cord to an 

electrical outlet.

3.

Connect analog telephones or fax machines into the 

Port 

connectors.

Use a standard telecommunication cord with a minimum of 26 AWG wire size.

4.

Connect a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet RJ-45 cable into the 

ETH1

 connector of the Mediatrix 4104; connect the other end to a compatible Ethernet 

interface that supplies TCP/IP network access (e.g., router, switch, hub or computer).

Use a standard telecommunication cord with a minimum of 26 AWG wire size.

5.

Connect a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet RJ-45 cable into the 

ETH2

 connector of the Mediatrix 4104 and connect the other end to the network card of 

a computer.

You can either use a crossover or straight Ethernet cable because it performs automatic MDI / MDIX detection. Use a standard 

telecommunication cord with a minimum of 26 AWG wire size.

6.

Connect a SCN line into the 

Bypass

 connector of the Mediatrix 4104 (optional).

Use a standard telecommunication cord with a minimum of 26 AWG wire size.

Step 2

IP Address Discovery or Configuration

The purpose of this section is to be able to contact the Mediatrix 4104's web interface to start with unit configuration.

Once the physical connection is complete, you will need to power on the Mediatrix 4104 and find out the IP address it is using. The Mediatrix 4104's IP 

address can be set either dynamically or statically. The default behaviour of the Mediatrix 4104 is to try to obtain a dynamic IP address through a DHCP 

server.

Note: 

This section applies to the IP configuration of the 

ETH1

 port.
