Chapter 4 Router Installation

Connecting an ADSL Line—ADSLoISDN Port

You can connect the ADSL cable directly to a cable wall jack or you can connect it to the wall jack using a splitter.

To connect the ADSL cable, perform one of the following, as appropriate:

To connect the ADSL cable directly to a cable wall jack see Figure 4-7 on page 4-9. Then follow these steps:

Connect one end of the ADSL cable to the ADSLoPOTS port on the router.

Connect the other end of the cable to the wall jack.

To connect the ADSL cable to a cable wall jack using a splitter, see Figure 4-8 on page 4-11. Then follow these steps:

Note Although Figure 4-8shows an ADSL-over-ISDN (ADSLoISDN) port, the connection to the splitter is the same for both ADSLoPOTS and ADSLoISDN ports.

Connect the RJ-11 end of the ADSL cable to the ADSLoPOTS port on the router.

Connect the other RJ-11 end of the ADSL cable to the local ADSL connector port on the ADSL splitter. The ADSL splitter is provided by the DSL service provider.

Connect the unshielded Category 5 cable from the outside ADSL port on the splitter to a wall jack.

Note You must provide the unshielded Category 5 cable for connecting to the splitter. The splitter is provided by the DSL service provider.

Connecting an ADSL Line—ADSLoISDN Port

This section applies only to the Cisco Secure Router 520 ADSL-over-ISDN router. The procedure for connecting an asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) depends on the router and, in some cases, on the location.

Note The DSL line must have been provisioned by your service provider and correctly configured so that the ADSL CD LED shows the status. If the ADSL CD LED is not on, contact the DSL service provider.

Note You must provide the unshielded Category 5 cable for connecting to the ADSL ISDN splitter. The ADSL ISDN splitter is provided by the DSL service provider.
