Patton electronic 5200 Installing cables, Connecting the 10/100Base-T Ethernet LAN and WAN cables

SmartNode 5200 Getting Started Guide 3 • SmartNode installation

Installing cables

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

Connect the cables in the following order:

1.Connect the 10/100Base-T Ethernet LAN and WAN (see section “Connecting the 10/100Base-T Ether- net LAN and WAN cables” on page 23)

2.Connect the power supply (see section “Connecting the power supply” on page 23)

Connecting the 10/100Base-T Ethernet LAN and WAN cables

The SmartNode 5200 has automatic MDX (auto-crossover) detection and configuration on all Ethernet ports. Any of the ports can be connected to a host or hub/switch with a straight-through wired cable.

1.Connect port ETH 0/0 to the subscriber port of the broadband access modem (DSL, cable, WLL).

2.Connect Ethernet ports 1 to 4 to your LAN devices (PC, printer, switches, etc.)

For details on the Ethernet port pinout and cables, refer to Appendix C, “Cabling” on page 39 and Appendix D, “Port pin-outs”on page 41.

Connecting the power supply

Do the following to connect the power supply to the Model 5200:

Note Do not connect the power cord to the AC power outlet at this time.

1.Insert the barrel-type connector end of the AC power supply into the 5V DC, 1.0A port (see figure 2 on page 16).

The external router power supply automatically adjusts to accept an input voltage from 100 to 240 VAC (50/60 Hz).

Verify that the proper voltage is present before plugging the power cord into the receptacle. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage.

2.Verify that the AC power cord included with your router is compatible with local standards. If it is not, refer to “Contacting Patton for assistance” on page 31 to find out how to replace it with a compatible power cord.

3.Connect the male end of the AC power supply power cord to an appropriate AC power outlet.
