2.Connect the RouteFinder Command Port to your PC using the short RJ-45 to DB25 (female) cable provided with your unit.

Plug the RJ-45 end of the cable into the Command Port on the RouteFinder. Plug the other end into a COM port on the PC. See Figure 2-4.

3.Connect an RJ-45 (UTP) cable to the 10BaseT connector on the back panel or a BNC (thin coaxial cable) connector to the 10Base2 connector.

4.Connect an RS-232C/D or V.35 interface cable to the back panel RS-232/V.35 connector as shown in Figure 2-4. Connect the other end of the cable to the appropriate connector on the external link device (WAN connection).

5.Connect one end of the power supply to a live AC outlet, then connect the other end to the POWER connector on the RouteFinder as shown in Figure 2-4. The power connector is a 6-pin circular DIN connector.

6.Turn on power to the RouteFinder by setting the ON/OFF switch on the back panel to the ON position. At this time your RouteFinder is completely cabled and powered On. Proceed to Chapter 3 to load the RouteFinder software.
