2 Using D-Link DVC-2000 over BGAN
Benefits to BGAN users
The DVC-2000 offers you the following main benefits:
• Fold away screen makes the unit more easily portable than some other video IP phones.
• Built in RJ-11 means you need to carry only this phone and not an additional voice phone.
Set-up
This section describes how to set up BGAN for use with the DVC-2000, and gives an example of a
configuration.
Before you start
The DVC-2000 works straight out of the box, and requires little configuration for use with BGAN.
This means that you can be making video and voice calls from anywhere in the world in just a few
minutes.
You can connect the DVC-2000 directly to a BGAN terminal. Note that the DVC-2000 relies on a
network connection being present when a call is made. Therefore, Inmarsat recommends that you
set up your terminal to auto-connect on start up; both the HNS 9201 and EXPLORER 500/700 can
be configured to start up in an auto-connect mode. Alternatively, there must be a computer
available to initiate an IP connection for the DVC-2000 over the BGAN network.
TIP: If you use the DVC-2000 with the HNS 9201, and set the terminal to operate in
auto-connect mode, make sure the DVC-2000 has a static IP address of
192.168.128.101, with a Gateway of 192.168.128.100. This is because the HNS 9201
can only automatically activate the first IP context, and map that to the IP address
192.168.128.101. The DVC-2000 can be configured to obtain an address via DHCP
from the terminal, or you can set a static IP address in the terminal’s address range.
The DVC-2000 is based on the H.323 industry standard video streaming over IP protocol. This
ensures that it can communicate with any H.323 compliant device.
Setting up for BGAN
Do the following to set up the DVC-2000 for use on a BGAN terminal:
1. If you are setting up the videophone for the first time, you must use the supplied wizard. Follow
the on-screen instructions and use values from steps 10-13 when prompted for address settings.
2. Plug one end of the supplied Ethernet cable into the BGAN terminal (or into a hub, switch or
router), and plug the other end into the Ethernet port at the back of the DVC-2000.
3. If you have not already done so, configure the terminal to auto-connect with the network (if
this is an option on your BGAN terminal).
4. Turn on the DVC-2000.
5. Select the Broadband button on the DVC-2000.
6. Select Settings to enter Setup.
7. Select Network and then Speed to set the Max Data Speed. Press the change button to
change the maximum send/receive rates. The setting you choose here limits the data speed on
all outgoing or incoming calls. See the Recommendations following these instructions.
8. Select OK from the Network menu screen.
9. Select Address to access the IP address setup menu.
10. Enter the appropriate IP address:
• 192*168*128*101 (for static IP using the HNS 9201).
• DHCP IP address (if using the EXPLORER 500/700).
11. Select the down cursor key to exit the IP address field.
12. Enter the Subnet Mask as: 255*255*255*0.
13. If you are using the HNS 9201, enter the Gateway address as 192*168*128*100.
14. Select the down cursor key to exit this field.
