Cabling your MultiFRAD 3000
Cabling your MultiFRAD involves general cabling connections for all models, data channel
connections, and Voice/Fax connections for models connecting to telephone equipment. The
general cable connections involve connecting power, command port, composite link device, and
LAN connections. The data channel connections involve connecting data devices, such as
multiplexers, or other MultiFRAD 3000s if you are using the hub feature. The final cable
connections involve connecting your telephone equipment to the voice/fax channels. The
following procedure details the cable connections for each type of connection.
Note: Before starting your general cable connections, perform the E&M Jumper Block
Positioning Procedure if a voice/fax channel will be connected to an E&M trunk that is Type 1,3,4,
or 5 rather than the default position of Type 2.
General Cable Connections
1 Connect one end of the power supply to a live AC outlet and connect the other end to the

2 Connect the MultiFRAD to the COM port on a PC. Plug the DB-25 male end of your serial
cable from your PC into the Command Port connector on the back of the MultiFRAD.
3 Connect one end of an DB-25 (female) cable to the Ext. Composite Link Connector on the
back of the MultiFRAD (as shown in Figure 3). Connect the other cable end to your T1 CSU/
DSU or compatible link device.
4 If you are connecting to a LAN, make the network connection by connecting an RJ-45 (UTP)
cable to the 10 BASE-T Ethernet connector (shown in Figure 3) on the back of the
MultiFRAD. Connect the other end of the cable to your LAN.
