About modem connections

Note:

You cannot connect USB modems to rotary lines. A touch tone line is required. On S8700-series Servers, connect a USB modem to the USB port on each server.

!CAUTION:

Once you connect the modems to the servers, do not unplug the modem USB cable on the active server. If you must replace the modem, replace the modem when the server is in standby mode.

Connecting to collocated servers

! Important:

Both servers share one telephone line.

To connect modems to collocated servers:

1.Install two RJ11 jack outlets wired to a single (1-Measured Business) telephone line.

2.Use the modular telephone cord that is supplied with the modem to connect one RJ11 jack to each modem.

3.Use the USB cable that is supplied with the modem to connect one modem to server 1.

4.Use the USB cable to connect the other modem to server 2.

Connecting to separated servers

! Important:

Each server has a dedicated telephone line.

To connect to separated servers:

1.For a server in each location, install one RJ11 jack outlet that is wired to a single 1-Measured Business telephone line.

2.Use the modular telephone cord that is supplied with the modem to connect one RJ11 jack to each server.

3.Connect each modem, using the USB cable, to the server at each location.
