Connecting analog phones to the Max™ (FXS version)
If your customer plans to connect analog phones or fax machines to the Max, they would need an FXS (Foreign Exchange Station) version.
Standard analog phones simply connect to an FXS version of the Max with an RJ-11 cable. The diagram below shows all the connections
necessary to operate an FXS version of the Max:

1 Telephone/Fax Connections
Standard analog telephones and fax machines connect to the analog FXS ports with RJ-11 cables.
2 LAN Ethernet Connections
To connect the Max to the LAN, plug the RJ-45 LAN jack from the hub or router into the LAN port on the Max.
3 PC Connection
To initially configure the Max, you can either:
a)
Connect it to a PC by using a 9-pin RS-232C cable to connect the PC's COM1 serial port to the Max console (pictured above) OR
b)
Use a telephone connected to an FXS port to acquire an IP address. Then, you will need to use a PC for the initial account setup. This PC should be on the
same network but does not have to be connected directly to the Max.
4 AC Power Connection
Plug the Max into a power outlet.
Note: When only analog phones are connected, the FXS version of the Max does not support inbound PSTN calling, but
you can receive calls (via *72) from other Max units.
