Connecting to a network

Before connecting the display, your organization’s network administrators need to configure the network to allow users to update the display’s firmware automatically and to use all the iQ features.

The display requires an internet connection for downloading software and firmware updates, and a number of the iQ apps require a network connection as well. You can connect to the network with Wi-Fi or with an Ethernet cable attached to one of the RJ45 jacks.

If you’re using one of the display’s RJ45 jacks to connect to a network, you can connect a computer to the other RJ45 jack to provide network access for the computer. This is particularly useful if only one wired network connection is available in the room. Network access is available when Networked Standby is enabled in Settings but not when Standby is enabled.

Notes 

  • If you are connecting the display to the network with Wi-Fi, the display’s Wi-Fi channel availability and restrictions will depend on the country defined in system settings.

  • If enabled, hotspot connections only use the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, not 6 GHz bands.
