Prestige 201 Rear Panel and Connections

The next figure shows the rear panel of your Prestige 201.
This section outlines how to connect your Prestige 201 to the LAN and to the ISDN network.
Step 1. Connecting the ISDN Line
Connect the Prestige to the ISDN network using the included ISDN cable. Plug one end of the cable into the
port labeled ISDN and the other to the ISDN wall jack.
Step 2. Connecting a Workstation to the Prestige
Ethernet 10Base-T networks use Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors that look like a
bigger telephone plug with 8 pins. Use the crossover cable to connect your Prestige 201 to a computer
directly or use straight through Ethernet cable (white tag) to connect to an external hub.
Step 3. Connecting the Power Adapter to your Prestige
Connect the power adapter to the port labeled POWER on the rear panel of your Prestige.
Step 4. Connecting the Console Port
For the initial configuration of your Prestige, you need to use terminal emulator software on a workstation
and connect it to the Prestige through the console port. Connect the 9-pin (smaller) end of the console cable
to the console port of the Prestige and the 25-pin (bigger) end to a serial port (COM1, COM2 or other COM
port) of your workstation. You can use an extension RS-232 cable if the enclosed one is too short.
After the initial setup, you can modify the configuration remotely through telnet connections. See the Telnet
Configuration and Capabilities chapter for detailed instructions on using telnet to configure your Prestige.
