Procedure
To connect your unit to the network:
1. Connect one end of the supplied network cable into the rear panel DSL jack.
2. Connect the other end to your DSL network interface.
NOTE:
Do not use a flat VF network cable as this may severely degrade the
performance of the termination unit. Use only Cat 5 twisted-pair network
cable.
A crossover cable (Pins 1 and 2 to 4 and 5) is required to connect two
7986 Standalone Termination Units back-to-back.
The E1 network interface is either two BNC connectors (Transmit and Receive)
for a 75-ohm unbalanced interface, or an RJ48C, 8-position, unkeyed modular
connector for a 120-ohm balanced interface. See Cables and Pin Assignments in
the User's Guide for specifications of the 120-ohm connector and cable.
An optional system maintenance terminal may be attached to your Hotwire 7986
Standalone Termination Unit through the modular jack on the rear panel. The
system maintenance terminal allows you to view the status of the unit, and
change configuration options. The terminal must be a VT100-compatible terminal
or a PC running terminal emulation software.
Procedure
To connect your unit to a system terminal:
1. Connect the 9-pin end of the terminal cable into a COM port on your PC.
2. Plug the other end into the modular jack on the rear panel.
3. Set the communication parameters on your PC or terminal to:
— 9600 baud
— 8 bit characters
— no parity
— 1 stop bit
— no flow control
Press Enter from your terminal or PC to activate the Main Menu for the attached
unit. The system runs diagnostics and status checks. After a few moments, the
Main Menu or Logon screen appears on your terminal.
