2.2 Pickleball: Connect the Wingfield Box to the internet

Let's get the Wingfield Box online. 🟢

👣 Step 1 | Mount the PoE switch

The PoE switch is the interface between your Wingfield Box, your Dome Camera, and your router. It is included in the scope of delivery of your Dome Camera.

Attach the switch somewhere between the Wingfield Box and your desired location of the Dome Camera (e.g., at a fence). You can easily use cable ties or pipe clamps from the hardware store. 

👣 Step 2 | Connect the PoE switch to your router & the Wingfield Box

• 1️⃣ Connect the switch to the power and turn it on.
• 2️⃣ Connect the PoE-switch with the Dell PC inside the Wingfield Box Body via Ethernet cable.
• 3️⃣ Plug in the Ethernet cable from your Internet source to the switch so that the setup of your Wingfield Box can be completed and you can get straight to work on your Dome Camera.

👣 Step 3 | Connect the Wingfield Box to the Internet

If you operate a single Wingfield Court, we always recommend the LAN connection from the Wingfield Box to your switch.

• 1️⃣ Start the configuration mode on the Wingfield Box. When your Wingfield Box is connected to your power supply, it automatically boots up and starts the configuration mode. 

• 2️⃣ Once you have connected your Wingfield Box to the PoE switch (and, of course, your internet source), please select the connection via LAN cable and wait until a connection has been established.

  

 

 

👣 Step 4 | Cover all cables

Stow the cables from the PoE switch to the Wingfield Box in your cable bridge to avoid tripping hazards on the court. The cable bridge is part of your Wingfield Box's delivery scope.
