Setup
Connecting Your IRIS DC1100
1. Place your IRIS DC1100 in a location where it will be well ventilated. Do not stack it
with other devices or place it on carpet.
2. Connect your WAN equipment Ethernet port with CAT5 cross over cable to IRIS
DC1100 Ethernet Port. If connecting to a hub or switch use a CAT5 straight through
cable.
3. For coaxial connections determine the model number of the IRIS unit.
The following models come with integrated fully agile 256 QAM DOCSIS Upconverter.
DC1100/DC1200/DC1400
The following models do not include an integrated upconverter.
DC1100X/DC1200X/DC1400X
You will have to connect the IF out from IRIS to a 256 QAM DOCSIS upconverter,
before cable modems will be able to connect to IRIS.
Refer to the chapter 3 for diagrams detailing these connections.
