Connecting the server to the ELAN subnet

Introduction

Connect the CallPilot server to the Meridian 1 switch or CS 1000 system
using the ELAN subnet.

Note: If you are installing a High Availability system, do not connect
either sever to the ELAN subnet. The connection to the ELAN subnet is
made when you configure the system.

ATTENTION

For important considerations about using the ELAN subnet in your network, see
the Planning and Engineering Guide (NN44200-200).

ATTENTION

To comply with EMC radiation requirements, a Class A Ethernet switch or hub
must be located 10 m (33 ft.) away from the 1005r server. You must use shielded
Ethernet cables.

To connect the server to the ELAN subnet

Step

Action

1

See the diagram on page

"Rear panel connectors" (page 31)

to

locate the ELAN Ethernet connector.

2

Connect an RJ-45 network cable from the ELAN Ethernet switch or
hub to the ELAN connector on the server.

Note: The ELAN Ethernet switch or 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 subnet.

3

At the switch, connect the ELAN network cable to the ELAN Ethernet
interface. Complete the connection from the transceiver to the
switch.

DANGER

Risk of fire hazard

Do not install a Media Access Unit (MAU) in ducts,
plenums, or other spaces used for environmental air. Do
not install a MAU above a false ceiling or below a raised
floor, unless you can confirm that these spaces are not
used to convey environmental air.
