ZXDSL 831/831B/831II/831BII User’s Manual

Note:

In the circumstance where the first connection example is not applicable and you choose to use the second example, you must install a MicroFilter on the telephone cable (as illustrated in Figure 3.3-2, do not use a splitter to replace the MicroFilter).

Installing a telephone directly before the splitter will lead to a failure of connection between the ZXDSL 831/831B/831II/831BII and the device at central office side, or a failure of access into the Internet, or a slow connection speed. If you really need to add a telephone set before the splitter, you have to add a MicroFilter before the telephone set. Do not connect several telephones before the splitter. Moreover, do not connect several telephones with MicroFilters.

The filter is not a standard-configuration device and you should separately purchase it from the operator.
