Connecting and Configuring the CCU to Ethernet LAN

| Introduction

The Carrier CCU can be connected to either Wi-fi or the Ethernet LAN to start communicating to the cloud. 

In order to support such places the Carrier CCU will start having USB port, that can connect to a USB to Ethernet adapter, which can be connected to the Ethernet LAN.

Not all CCUs will have this feature. Any CCU that is received in 2022 and later supports this feature. 

Note: When connecting ethernet to the CCU, it is known that the CCU will reboot each time you undock the tablet from the CM. Perform as much pairing and configuration before docking the tablet again.
