LANs 1 and 2

The Ethernet connectors (LANs 1 and 2) are RJ45 10/100baseT ports, which automatically nego-
tiate the fastest speed possible:

Fig. 12-8: Rear Panel Connectors - LAN ports 1 and 2 - RJ45

These ports are typically used for uploading and downloading media and configuration files,
but can also be used for automation. You can connect the Imagestore 750 to two local networks.

Note: It is recommended that both LAN ports be connected, ideally to separate switches
because the ports are ‘bonded’ together (in software) to achieve Ethernet redundancy on
the same IP address.

Note: Separate IP addresses can be assigned to LAN 1 and LAN 2 for master control applica-
tions where media transactions must be isolated from automation control. This is known as
VLAN port tagging. It is not usually required since modern networks can deal with all trans-
actions over one IP address, and network redundancy is lost. Please contact Miranda
Customer Support for details.

The pin-out of the Ethernet port is:

Each of the LAN ports has two integral LED indicators.
