Chapter 2 Installation and Setup Vmux-2100Installation and Operation Manual

Connecting the Main Link

The Vmux-2100 Ethernet main link interface terminates in an 8-pin RJ-45 connector. Appendix A specifies the pinout of the Ethernet connector. The Ethernet main link port supports connection via straight and cross cables.

To connect the Ethernet main link:

•Connect the LAN to the RJ-45 connector designated ETH.

The E1/T1 main link interface terminates in an 8-pin RJ-45 balanced connector. Appendix A specifies the pinout of the E1/T1 balanced connector.

To connect the balanced E1/T1 main link:

•Connect the E1/T1 link to the RJ-45 connector designated E1 A or E1 B.

To connect the unbalanced E1 main link:

1.Insert the RJ-45 plug of the CBL-RJ45/2BNC adapter into the Vmux-2100 RJ-45 connector designated E1 A or E1 B.

2.Connect the coax cable to the BNC connectors of the CBL-RJ45/2BNC adapter.

Connecting the ASCII Terminal

The Vmux-2100 control port terminates in a 9-pin D-type female interface connector. Appendix A specifies the pinout of the control port connector.

To connect the ASCII terminal directly to the CONTROL port:

1.Connect the standard DB-9 flat cable to the 9-pin connector, designated

CONTROL.

2.Connect the other side of the cable to the ASCII terminal.

To connect the ASCII terminal via modem link:

1.Connect the VMUX connector of the CBL-VMUX-MM-MODEM cross cable to the CONTROL port (see Appendix A for the cable wiring diagram).

2.Connect the MODEM connector of the cross cable to the local modem.

3.Connect the remote modem to the ASCII terminal.
