Installing the FTTH CPE

Notes: 1. Make sure each twisted-pair cable does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

2.We advise using Category 5 cable for all network connections to avoid any confusion or inconvenience in the future when you upgrade devices to Fast Ethernet.

Powering On the CPE

Plug the AC power adapter directly into a power outlet. Check the LED marked “PWR” on the front panel to be sure it is on.

Otherwise, the CPE can derive its operating power directly from the LAN port when connected to a device that provides IEEE 802.3af compliant Power over Ethernet.

If the CPE is connected to both a PoE source device and an AC power source, PoE is used, and input from the AC adapter disabled.

Configuring the TCP/IP Protocol

To connect to the Internet through the CPE’s Ethernet port, a computer must have an Ethernet network interface card installed, and be configured for the TCP/IP protocol. Many service providers will configure TCP/IP for client computers automatically using a networking technology known as Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Other service providers may specify an IP configuration (known as a static IP address), which must be entered manually.

Carry out the following steps to check that the computer’s Ethernet port is correctly configured for DHCP.

Windows 95/98/NT

1.Select Start/Settings/Control Panel.

2.Click on the Network icon.

3.For Windows NT, click the Protocols tab.

4.Select TCP/IP from the list of network protocols, this may include details of adapters installed in your computer.

5.Click on “Properties.”

6.Select the option “Obtain an IP Address.”

Windows 2000

1.Select Start/Settings/Network and Dial-up Connections.

2.Click on “Local Area Connections.”

3.Select “TCP/IP” from the list of network protocols, this may include details of adapters installed in your computer.

4.Click on “Properties.”

5.Select the option “Obtain an IP Address.”
