Verify that the Power LED (see figure 2) illuminates and remains lit.

3.0Connect the G.SHDSL port

1.Obtain single-twisted-pair cable with an RJ-45 plug connector at each end.

2.Plug one end of the cable into the RJ-45 socket (labelled DSL) on the OnSite CPE.

If you are connecting to a DSL service, plug the other end of the cable into the RJ-45 wall socket that provides your G.SHDSL service.

If connecting to another OnSite, verify the other end of the cable is connected to the DSL port on other OnSite and the DSL port is correctly configured.

3.When a DSL link is established, the front-panel DSL LED will turn on.

4.0Connect the serial port

Your OnSite comes with one of the following serial WAN ports for connection to an CPE:

RS-232 (DB-25F)—Model 3088A/A

V.35 (DB-25F)—Model 3088A/CA

X.21 (DB-15)—Model 3088A/D

E1 (120-Ohm RJ-48C and dual 75-Ohm BNC connectors)—Model 3088A/K
