Ethernet Link
The rear panel Ethernet connector on the
CrossPoint 450 Plus or MAV Plus switcher can be
connected to an Ethernet LAN or WAN. This connection
makes SIS control of the switcher possible using a computer
connected to the same LAN.
Ethernet connection
The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover
cable and must be properly terminated for your application (figure A-1).
• Crossover cable — Direct connection between the computer and the
CrossPoint 450 Plus or MAV Plus switcher.
• Patch (straight) cable — Connection of the CrossPoint 450 Plus or MAV Plus
switcher to an Ethernet LAN.

Default address
To access the CrossPoint 450 Plus or MAV Plus switcher via the Ethernet port, you
will need the switcher’s IP address. If the address has been changed to an address
comprised of words and characters, the actual numeric IP address can be
determined using the Ping utility. If the address has not been changed, the factory-
specified default is 192.168.254.254.
Ping can also be used to test the Ethernet link to the CrossPoint 450 Plus or
MAV Plus
switcher.
