1. Place the Lexan overlay in the front plastic tray of the
BLU-8v2. Optionally, this may be replaced with a
custom overlay in a color and style to match the décor
of the facility or with your own branding.
2. Affix legend stickers in place on the labelling areas of
the Lexan overlay, if required. If a custom overlay has
been used, this labelling may have been included in the
artwork.
3. Place the clear cover molding on top of the Lexan,
taking care to align correctly so that the buttons are not
trapped.
4. Screw the entire unit into the wallbox with the screws provided.
Power
The BLU-8v2 requires 14-48V DC to be supplied externally. There are two ways to
do this:
Connect a suitable supply to the 14-48V DC connector,
or
the unit may be powered via the Ethernet connector using IEEE802.3af Power Over
Ethernet (POE).
Typical mid-span Ethernet powering devices are:
3Com® Power over Ethernet Single-Port Midspan Solution - p/n 3CNJPSE
3Com® Power over Ethernet Multiport Midspan Solution - p/n 3CNJPSE24
Cisco Unified IP Phone Power Injector – p/n CP-PWR-INJ
Ethernet switches with power over Ethernet ports include:
3Com® SuperStack® 3 Switch 4400 PWR - p/n 3C17205
HP ProCurve Switch 2626-PWR - p/n J8164A#ABA
Network connection
Using a standard Cat 5 cable, the BLU-8v2 connects into a Soundweb London
network via its Ethernet port, either directly into the rear of a rackmount device
(e.g BLU-16), or into an Ethernet network switch.
The BLU-8v2 is shipped with Auto-IP enabled, ready for first configuration. Static IP
addresses are recommended, but DHCP is supported. Please see the important note
about DHCP in the HiQnet London Architect help file.
