You can use the alarm port to indicate electrically when an alarm has been
generated on the Acme Packet 6100. The alarm port contains leads for three
circuits, each of which closes to signify a corresponding alarm.
To connect the alarm port cable to the NIU alarm port:
1. Locate the alarm contact cable you plan to connect to the Acme Packet
6100.
2. Insert the RJ45 connector on the end of the alarm port cable into the alarm
port labeled Alarm. The release tab on the RJ45 jack clicks into place when
you insert it properly.

3. Lead the alarm cable neatly away from the rear panel toward any alarm
monitoring equipment.
Standard shielded CAT5e or CAT6 (or higher) Ethernet cables with RJ45 jacks
are used for connecting the Acme Packet 6100 management Ethernet ports to
your network. These ports support 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds.
Note: Keep Ethernet cables separated from power cables by at
least 60mm where possible and never run them in the same
channel of a trunking system without segregation.
To connect Ethernet cables to the rear panel Ethernet ports:
1. Locate the Ethernet cables you plan to connect to the Acme Packet 6100.
2. Insert the RJ45 connector on the end of the Ethernet cable into one of the
NIU management Ethernet ports. These ports are labeled Mgmt0, Mgmt1,
and Mgmt2. The release tab on the RJ45 jack will click into place when you
insert it properly.
3. Route the cable away from the Acme Packet 6100. Make sure that the
Ethernet cables are not stretched tightly or subject to extreme stress.
4. Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for each additional management Ethernet cable
you will connect to your Acme Packet 6100.
