Configuring a Modem

You must configure the modem before you can connect it to the GSS 4490. You can connect the modem to a terminal or a PC using a terminal emulation program, such as Hyperterminal. If you connect the modem to the COM port on a PC, you need the following cable and connectors:

•RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rolled cable

•RJ-45-to-DB-25 modem adapter

•DB-9-to-RJ-45 terminal adapter
