Stratus to Review Station Direct Network Connection
(Crossover Cable) Instructions
This section explains how to configure a direct network connection between the Stratus
OCT and a PC running Stratus Review Software. If you do not have a preexisting

their respective ethernet ports. It is the user’s responsibility to acquire and install the
necessary crossover cable.
WARNING: When networking the Stratus OCT, use only network cables with
an unshielded RJ-45 connector. Use of a
shielded network cable in the Stratus

instrument and the review station PC will each be configured with a static IP address
