INTRODUCTION - HARDWARE
The Barrett 4050 HF SDR Transceiver (P/N BC405000) can interface with:
• USB to Ethernet Adaptor (P/N BCA40505)
• 4050 to USB Adaptor (P/N BCA40502)
• 4050 to Ethernet Adaptor (P/N BCA40503)
• 4050 to Ethernet Adaptor with USB Port (P/N BCA40504)
• WiFi Adapter (P/N BCO40508)
• Barrett Break out Box (discontinued as of April 2019) (P/N BCA40050)
This guide details the rst two options and describes their installation. The BoB
instructions are in an appendix at the rear of the manual. The maximum num-
ber of applications that can connect to one 4050 HF SDR system is ve. A 4050
HF SDR system consists of at least one of two control heads, the transceiver
body and the optional BoB.
Chapter 1 offers denitions and hardware descriptions.
Chapters 2 and 3 provide examples of typical setup scenarios of a transceiver,
network access and/or a computer. Each set-up may need to be congured
differently in accordance with local network operating procedures and security.
Chapter 2 demonstrates how to set up the transceiver wirelessly. Scenario 1
outlines the different applications (apps) that can be used on Windows, iOS,
and Android software via the transceiver’s wireless network and WiFi adaptor.
Scenario 2, however, connects over local WiFi via a router.
Chapter 3 demonstrates four ways of connecting the internet and transceiver
via an Ethernet connection. Scenarios 3 and 4 show how a system could be set
up using a small local area network. This allows multiple operators on the local
area network to control or program the transceiver remotely. These scenarios
show a conguration using a switch and a computer with and without a DHCP
server. The third scenario is set up using a static IP address via an Ethernet cable,
and the transceiver in the fourth scenario uses DHCP protocols.
Scenarios 5 shows how to congure a transceiver over the internet via a VPN
which provides added security. The benet of this set up is that the operator
can be outside the LAN, and have access to the transceiver.
Chapter 4 contains the appendices with additional information on DHCP, port
forwarding and VPNs.
The scenarios given throughout the manual are using Windows 10 Professional
as the operating system. Support can be provided for other Windows operating
systems, ask your network administrator or your dealer for more information.

INTRODUCTION - TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS
Term Denition
BoB Break out Box (discontinued)
Bonjour Bonjour is Apple’s implementation of zero-conguration
networking, a group of technologies that includes service
discovery, address assignment, and host name resolution.
DHCP Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol
DNS Domain Name Servers are the Internet’s equivalent of a
phone book. They maintain a directory of domain names
and translate them to Internet Protocol (IP) addresses
Firewall A security protocol designed to prevent unauthorised ac-
cess to a private network. Firewalls can be implemented
as hardware or software.
LAN Local Area Network, an example would be an ofce net-
work.
Network Switch A multi-port network bridge that uses hardware address-
es to process and forward data.
Port Forwarding Or port mapping is a name given to the combined tech-
nique of translating the address and/or port number of a
data packet to a new destination, possibly accepting such
packet(s) in a packet lter (rewall), then forwarding the
packet according to the routing table.
Router A networking device that forwards data packets between
computer networks. It provides a wired link to the LAN,
and a gateway to external networks, for example the In-
ternet.
Static IP Address A manually congured IP address, sometimes referred to
as a xed IP address.
TCP Transmission Control Protocol
UDP User Datagram Protocol
VPN A Virtual Private Network is a private network that extends
across a public network or Internet and is usually secured
at each end. It enables users to send and receive data
across shared or public networks as if their computing
devices were directly connected to the private network.
WAN Wide Area Network, an example would be the Internet.

WiFi Wireless Fidelity
WiFi Access Point
/ Router
Enables wireless network packet forwarding and routing,
and serves as an access point in a local area network. It
works much like a wired router but replaces wires with
wireless radio signals to communicate within and pro-
vides a gateway to an external network (Internet).

INTRODUCTION - WIFI ADAPTOR
The Barrett WiFi Adaptors
(P/N: BCO40508)
The WiFi Adaptors are necessary to connect the Barrett 4050 HF SDR Trans-
ceiver (P/N BC405000) via WiFi to external devices such as tablets, smart
phones and PCs or to external networks. External devices can control the
Barrett 4050 HF SDR Transceiver using the Barrett 4000 series Remote Control
Software which is available for iOS, Android and Windows.
Two WiFi adaptors are supplied by Barrett. An Edimax adaptor for use with WiFi
Access Point mode and a TP-Link adaptor for use with WiFi Client mode. Only
one may be used at any time.
See page 12 for examples of how to set up the Barrett 4050 HF SDR Trans-
ceiver to utilise WiFi.
Note: it is not possible to operate both the Wi and Ethernet adapters simultane-
ously.
