Cable the Ethernet Connector

The OfficeConnect bridge/router accepts either a 10BASE-2 coaxial or 10BASE-T twisted pair (TP) Ethernet cable connection.

Attach a coaxial Ethernet cable to the BNC connector using a T-connector, or plug the 8-foot twisted pair cable supplied with the OfficeConnect bridge/router into the slot labeled TP.

Only one Ethernet connection is allowed.

Cable the Serial Port

Attach the special 3Com Flex-WAN cable to the port labeled Serial.

Attach the Flex-WAN end of the cable to the OfficeConnect bridge/router port. The other end of the cable has the appropriate connector (V.35, X.21, or RS-232) for a serial modem or CSU/DSU device.

You should have ordered the Flex-WAN cable when you ordered your OfficeConnect bridge/router. You can order a Flex-WAN cable from your local 3Com sales representative.

Plug the CSU/DSU or modem cable into the connector on the Flex-WAN cable. Connect the CSU/DSU or modem to the leased line provided by your telco vendor.
