Requirements made on the NAS device
The NAS device must have the following features to guarantee safety and
acceptable performance in use of the i.Profiler
® plus
:
• Support of 100BaseT or 1000BaseT Ethernet. For safety reasons a USB
connection is not permissible with the i.Profiler
® plus
.
• Crossover cable or a non-crossover cable with a crossover adapter for
direct connection to the i.Profiler
® plus
:
UTP CAT5e cable with an RJ-45 jack, at least 3 m long, so that the NAS
device can be located outside the reach of patients (see above safety
precautions).
Recommendations for the NAS device
• Storage capacity: Should be at least as large as the storage capacity of
the i.Profiler
® plus
hard drive.
• Data storage: To ensure unlimited redundancy in data backup, we
recommend using data backup software of your choice for the NAS
device.
• Several NAS devices may be used for data backup. However, when two
or more NAS devices are used simultaneously, a switch or router will be
required. The switch/router may be connected directly to the i.Profiler

or another point in the LAN. The user is responsible for the configuration.
