4.0 Installation
1. Remove the modem and wall transformer from the shipping car-
ton. Remove the wall transformer from its box. Remove the
plastic wrapper from around the modem.
a. Remove the cable ties from each of the cables and place
them side by side.
b. Each of the cables is identified as follows:
(1) RJ-45 10Base-Tstraight-through cable: A cable with
RJ-45 connectors is used to connect the modem to a
10Base-T hub or node. If connecting to a node (PC,
server or workstation), the switch on the back of the
modem will allow this cable to be used like a cross-
over cable (Figure 4.1).
Figure 4.1. RJ-45 10Base-T Straight-through Cable
(2) RJ-11 DSLLine cable: A cable with RJ-11 connectors
at each end. RJ-11 connectors have four contacts and
are smaller than the RJ-45 connectors, which have eight
contacts. The diameter of the RJ-11 cable is smaller
than the RJ-45 cable. This cable is used to connect the
modem to the telephone jack (Figure 4.2).
Note: RJ-11 cables generally have four contacts and six pinout
positions. The pinout assignments for the RJ-11 and RJ-45
connectors are provided in Appendix A.
