Cabling Preparations
In order to configure and manage your AT-MC601 and AT-MC602 VDSL network extenders, you need to download a copy of the configuration software onto the computers you will use to manage the units. The AT- S57 configuration software is included on the Documentation CD provided with the units.
New releases of the AT-S57 configuration software are available from the Allied Telesyn Web site at www.alliedtelesyn.com or from our FTP server at ftp.alliedtelesyn.com. To log on to the FTP server, enter “anonymous” for the user name and your email address for the password. Management software for the AT-MC601 and AT-MC602 VDSL network extenders will have “S57” as part of the file name.
Once you have a copy of the software on your computer, connect the Provider unit to your computer using the management cable provided, as shown in Figure 18. Attach the 9-pin RS-232 end of the cable to the COM 1 or COM 2 port on your computer. Attach the 8-pin DIN end of the cable to the management port on the unit.
