4. Hardware Installation
4.1. Ethernet Connections
iBoot supports 10/100 Ethernet using unshielded twisted pair (Cat 5)
cabling. Two network jacks, with built-in Ethernet switch, are
provided. They are auto-sensing for 10/100 and Uplink/Downlink. A
Link LED for each jack indicates when the connection to the network
is properly established. The built-in switch allows one cable from
the wiring closet to be used for both iBoot and the device it is
powering (or any other device). Use of both network jacks is
optional.
Note: iBoot supports DHCP. If your network uses a DHCP server, it will
automatically assign an IP address when iBoot is first powered up
on the network. If you do not use DHCP there are several other
methods of assigning an IP address. Please read the Initial
Configuration section, page 5 for more details.
4.2. AC Power Connections
Connect the device to be powered ON and OFF to the IEC
receptacle marked Switched Outlet. An IEC 320 to North American
(NEMA 5-15) power cord is included for connecting the iBoot outlet
to the device to be controlled.
If a cord with a different terminating receptacle is required, be sure it
is properly rated and meets all the required local electrical
standards. If the device to be powered uses an IEC320 receptacle
and detachable power cord, an IEC to IEC extension cord can be
used.
The iBoot can be connected to a power strip to allow simultaneous
control of multiple devices.
Make
sure that the
combined load of all
controlled devices does not
exceed 12 Amps for 105-
125VAC or 10 Amps for
210-240VAC.
An LED Indicator next to the
Switched Outlet will be On
to indicate that the power is
On at that outlet. This LED
will turn Off to indicate that
the power is Off to the outlet.
Connect the supplied power cord to the connector labeled AC Input,
and the other end to your AC source. If a power cord with a
different terminating plug is required, be sure it is properly rated and
meets all the required local electrical standards. Switched
