JRC 250 & 500

Voice connection

1. The JRC uses an ISDN communication only and so is not able to use IP Handset registration. In
order to handle ISDN calls an extra card has been added to the PBX. Please remove the PBX cover
panel following the instructions that you can find in INFINITY Voice Installation step 4 and verify
that the extra card is attached to PBX.

2. The extra ISDN card has an RJ-45 port to which one end of a certified ISDN connection cable is
already connected. The other end of the cable should be connected to JRC Fleet Broadband ISDN
port.

- 19 -
 - Due to ISDN cable technical limitations, please only use
the certified ISDN cable that is provided with the INFINITY
unit!
- Do not use an Ethernet cable!

Port forwarding

Due to JRC technical limitations port forwarding is not possible to be done through JRC
terminals with firmware version lower than 01.27 for JRC 250 and 11.40 for JRC 500. To bypass this
situation a NAVARINO’s Mikrotik router is connected between the JRC Fleet Broadband Ethernet port
and the INFINITY ETH0 port. The connection diagram is displayed below.

*special NAVARINO Mikrotik router setup may be required

JRC’s firmware version 01.27 for JRC 250 and 11.40 for JRC 500 and above introduces a new
functionality which gives the ability to have always activated connection. All traffic is being forwarded
to INFINITY ETH0 IP and so there is no need for Mikrotik router. Below you can find the steps to
enable this option and setup it to work with INFINITY.

- 20 -
 - If the firmware needs update a certified technician must
fulfill the operation!

1. Connect your laptop with JRC and login using the JRC Launcher.
