Chapter 1 - Introduction and Description

Back Panel

The cable connections for the RouteFinder are made at the back panel. Three groups of cables are used on the RouteFinder, the Command Port, WAN link, and the Ethernet. The cable connections are shown in Figure 1-3 and defined in the following groups.

RS232/V.35	10BASE T	COMMAND PORT		ON
	10BASE 2		POWER	OFF

Figure 1-3. Back Panel

RS-232/V.35 Connector

The RS-232/V.35 connector is used to connect the RouteFinder to a WAN device. The WAN device connection is to an asynchronous or synchronous communications device such as a modem, DSU, or ISDN terminal adapter. This connection can be either RS232C or V.35. If the connection is V.35, then the shunt must be moved from the default RS232 position to the V.35 position. This connector is a DB25 male connector.

10Base T Connector

The 10Base-T connector is used to connect the RouteFinder to a LAN using unshielded twisted cable. This connector is an RJ-45 jack.

10Base 2 Connector

The 10Base 2 connector is used to connect the RouteFinder to a LAN using thin coax cable.

Command Port Connector

The Command Port connector is used to configure the RouteFinder using a PC with a serial port and running Windows® software. The Command Port connector is an RJ-45 jack and a short adapter cable is provided to convert to a standard serial port DB25 female connector.

Power Connector

The Power connector is used to connect the external power supply to the RouteFinder. The Power connector is a 6-pin circular DIN connector. A separate power cord is connected to the power supply and the live AC grounded outlet.

ON/OFF Switch

The power switch provides DC power to the RouterFinder when placed in the ON position and removes power when placed in the OFF position.
