Installing the TVP-224HR This chapter gives information on how to install the TVP-224HR.
2.1 Network Requirements
For the TVP-224HR to successfully operate in your network, your network must
meet the following requirements:
1. A working 10/100 Base-T Ethernet. The TVP-224HR connects to the Internet
via an Ethernet LAN.
2. IP network that supports gateway, and subnet mask. You’ll need a static IP
address to assign the TVP-224HR or a DDNS account for your Dynamic IP.
2.2 Installing the TVP-224HR
Due to the TVP-224HR being used in a desktop configuration, ensure that the
TVP-224HR is placed in a clean, well-ventilated, and vibration-free environment.
When the TVP-224HR is used, be certain that the unit is placed on a sturdy, flat
surface, near a grounded power outlet. At least three inches of clearance must be
provided on both sides of the TVP-224HR for good ventilation.
2.3 Connecting to the telephony devices
The 4 port TVP-224HR supports 2 FXO and 2 FXS. Each RJ11 port is for
connecting to telephony devices.
The FXO port is designed for connecting to PBXs or local telephone company
central office switches (CO).
The FXS port is designed for connecting to analog telephone sets, G3 fax
machines.
Warning: connection of incorrect telephony devices to the ports on the TIM can
cause permanent damage to the TIM and/or the TVP-224HR.
2.4 Connecting to the LAN Network
The 4x RJ45 LAN network ports on the rear panel supports 10/100 Mbps half-
duplex connections to Ethernet. You can use either Category 3 or 5 straight-
through UTP cable for 10 Mbps connections, but use Category 5 for 100 Mbps
connections. Insert one end of the Ethernet cable into one of the 4 RJ45 ports on
the rear panel of the TVP-224HR and other end of the cable to a network device /
PC.
