The EtherUSB™EA104 is a USB Ethernet Access Point for connecting PDA and PDA
phone using Pocket PC 2003/2003SE operating systems (OS), CE5.0, CE.NET4.1/4.2
and Windows Mobile 5.0 and Windows Mobile 6.0 to an Ethernet network. Connection

to10/100 Base-T Ethernet network. EA104 belongs to EtherUSB™ product line.
EA104 is equipped with 4 USB host ports and four 10/100 Base-T ports, one for uplink
to the Ethernet network and three for optional connection of PC or computing devices.
EA104 provides TCP/IP-based network connectivity for up to 4 PDA devices
simultaneously using a PDA USB cradle or USB cables and the server side 10/100
Base-T network.
To get started immediately, please refer to Appendix A – Quick Start Guide.
Each connected PDA can perform server synchronization, Internet browsing, and file
transfer. This solution provides an alternative network connection other than WiFi, while
offering higher security and reliability standards. It works perfectly for the mobile users,

2.2 Hardware Installation
1. Connect the Ethernet cable to the EA104 Ethernet uplink (WAN) and the other
end to Ethernet switch/hub*.
2. Connect PDA to the EA104 USB port**.
3. Connect the power adapter to rear socket of the EA104, then into the wall outlet.
If power is present, the EA104 will proceed with normal power on sequence - self
test and boot up sequence within 25 seconds; once the Power LED is solid in
color on the front panel, the unit is ready.
• If the unit has a problem, the power LED will flash quickly.
• If the network connection has a Link, the Ethernet LED will blink green.
• If USB devices are connected & recognized by the EA104, the
corresponding LED will illuminate on the front panel.
To shut down the EA104, disconnect the AC power adapter. Do not shut down the
EA104 when there is a PDA performing data communications since this may
cause data to be lost.
Notes:
* In a non-DHCP environment, the system administrator must set up an enclosed
DHCP network by accessing the EA104 configuration using the browser-based
AdminTool.
