Connecting to the CBW3
Normally the CBW3 is fitted with a Fibre Optic (FO) LAN connection SFP module with LC
connector. To connect directly your laptop to the CBW3 you should either go through a
FO/RJ45 converter, a FO/USB converter or replace the FO SFP module by a suitable RJ45
SFP module (see picture below).
Warning: Standard 1Gbs RJ45 SFP modules will not work ! Only certain 100Mbs SFP
module actually work. Please contact GE to acquire a correct and tested SFP module.
Figure 7 – Connection to the CBW3
Alternatively connect onto (or VPN into) the same network as the one the CBW3 is on.
Launch any Internet browser (for example: “Google Chrome” or “Mozilla Firefox”, (but
preferably not “Internet Explorer” which is old and has compatibility issues) and enter the
CBW3’s IP address in the address line.
192.168.5.22
Because the CBW3 uses “https” secure encrypted communication and your browser will
not recognise the SSL security certificate, it will give you a warning that the
communication may be dangerous and unsecured.
