44 Chapter 3 Instant Internet 400-S hardware installation

If you experience problems during installation, unplug all connections, except the LAN connection, and then restart the Instant Internet unit.

Note: Do not apply power to the Instant Internet unit until you have completed the installation steps.

You can mount your Instant Internet unit in an equipment rack or place it on a flat surface. If you choose not to mount the Instant Internet unit in a rack, be sure to install the unit’s rubber feet. If the feet are not installed, stick the adhesive side of the feet on the spaces provided on the bottom of the unit. You need to use either the mounting brackets or the feet.

To install your Instant Internet hardware:

1Do one of the following:

If you want to mount your Instant Internet unit in a rack, you must do so before you connect it to your LAN. Follow the procedure “Mounting your Instant Internet unit in a rack” on page 46 and then return to this procedure and continue with step 2.

If you do not want to mount your Instant Internet unit in a rack, place the unit on any appropriately level surface that can safely support the weight of the unit and attached cables. Make sure that there is adequate space around the unit for ventilation and access to cable connectors. Allow at least 2 inches (5.1cm) on each side for proper ventilation and 5 inches (12.7cm) at the back for power cord clearance and ventilation. Continue with step 2.

2With the tip of a pen, slide the power voltage selector switch to the power voltage setting that matches your power voltage. For more information, see “Setting the voltage selector switch” on page 42.

3Attach one end of the communications cable to the appropriate connector on the rear panel of the Instant Internet unit.

If you are using an analog modem, ISDN, 1-Meg modem, V.35, X.21, T1, or E1 connection, use slot A for this connection.

If you are using an external Ethernet device, use the Ethernet connector in the option slot (Eth3) to connect to the external modem. Be sure to use the proper cable (straight-through or crossover) for this connection.
