Network Connections - D-Link DAS-3626 Quick Installation Manual

Network Connections

The partial front view of the DAS-3626 Switch in the diagram below illustrates all network connectors as well as
the RS-232 console port.
The required connections for full POTS and VDSL operation are as follows:
1. Connect the female RJ-21 receptacle labeled POTS to the PBX (analog channel to Central Office) for basic
telephone services with Telco50 cable.
2. Connect the female RJ-21 receptacle labeled VDSL to patch panel for connection to CPE (via 0.4mm or
0.5mm twisted-pair telephone cabling). This connection is made using Telco50 cable with a male RJ-21
connector to the Main Distribution Frame, Cabling Cabinet, patch panel or other telephone distribution
system used for connection the end users.
3. Uplink to backbone via Gigabit SFP port(s) "mini-GBIC" (single or multimode fiber). The DAS-3626 includes
the option of using RJ-45 1000BASE-T port(s) for the uplink. If you prefer to use the 1000BASE-T ports on
the DAS-3626, configuration is required to enable the ports (and disable the SFP ports).
4. The Gigabit ports may be used to trunk with another DAS-3626. This requires configuration to specify the
port will be used for trunking (config interface switch port-trunking).
Network cable connections can be made to the switch with the power on or off. Caution should always be used
when working with or handling any electrically powered devices.
For initial set up and management, connect the male RS-232 port to the computer used for switch configuration
and management using RS-232 cable.
