Connecting the USB modems

Connecting the USB modems

If you have not connected the modems yet, do so now.

! WARNING:

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

NOTE:

USB and serial modems cannot connect to rotary lines. A Touch Tone line is required.

When you configure the media server, you set the modem options. No options are set on the modems themselves.

Connecting to collocated servers

Both servers share one telephone line. To connect to collocated servers:

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

2Connect the RJ11 jacks, one to each media server, using the modular telephone cord supplied with the modem.

3Connect one modem, using the USB cable supplied with the modem, to media server 1.

4Connect the other modem, using the USB cable, to media server 2.

Connecting to separated servers

Each server has a dedicated telephone line. To connect to separated servers:

1Install one RJ11 jack outlet wired to a single 1MB telephone line for a media server in each location.

2Connect the RJ11 jack to each media server, using the modular telephone cord supplied with the modem.

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

NOTE:

For more information on media servers in two locations, see Job Aid: Server and CSS
