Elavon Lane 3000 w/ Combox

The Elavon Lane 3000 has a network connection independent from the POS and uses a ComBox to facilitate communication. An umbilical cable is used to connect the ComBox to the Lane 3000 and the ComBox functions as a passthrough for the terminal’s ethernet connection. It is important that cables are connected appropriately as the ComBox functions as a hub through which all connections are run.

Because the Lane has its own network connection, a static IP will need to be configured on both the Lane 3000 & POS  if DHCP is not active on the network.
