Connecting the server to the ELAN

Introduction

Connect the CallPilot server to the Meridian 1 switch or Succession 1000
system using the Embedded LAN (ELAN).

To connect the server to the ELAN

1 Locate the ELAN Ethernet connector on the back of the server.

Note: The ELAN connector is labeled as NIC1 10/100 MB. For the
connector location, see the diagram on page 54.

2 Connect an RJ-45 network cable from the ELAN hub to the server’s

ELAN connector.

Note: The ELAN hub is optional if you use a cross-over network cable to
make a direct point-to-point connection from the server to the switch.
However, if you choose to establish a direct point-to-point ELAN
connection, no other device can connect to the ELAN.

ATTENTION

For important considerations about using the ELAN in
your network, see “About the ELAN” in CallPilot
Installation and Configuration Part 1: Installation and
Maintenance Overview
(555-7101-210).

ATTENTION

If a hub is required or used, it must be located at least 6 m
(20 ft) away from the 703t server. This ensures compliance
with EMC requirements.
