Installing Dsl Filters; Installing A Dsl Inline Filter - Pace 5111NV Installation Manual

Installing DSL filters

DSL signals are carried over the same lines as regular phone signals. Converting your
regular phone line to DSL can cause high-pitched tones and static when you use the
phone. To eliminate the noise, you can install DSL filters on every phone or phone
device that shares the same phone number as your DSL.
You need one DSL filter for each phone device (such as a desktop phone, analog
modem, FAX, or answering machine). If you have several phone devices connected to
each other and are using a single phone jack, install only one DSL filter between the
phone jack and the first device in the series.
Note: Do not install a DSL filter on the line that is connected to the DSL gateway.

Installing a DSL inline filter

To use a filter with most phone devices, you must install the DSL filter between the
device and the phone jack.
1. Connect the cable from your device to the DSL filter.
2. Connect the cable from the DSL filter to your phone jack.
