Hotwire 6301/6302 IDSL Routers Overview
Hotwire®6301 and 6302 IDSL (Integrated Services Digital Network Digital Subscriber
Line) Routers are components in the Hotwire DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access
Multiplexer) system.



Hotwire 6302 IDSL Router with a 4-port Ethernet hub
Both Hotwire IDSL Routers interoperate with either the Hotwire 8303 or 8304 IP IDSL
Line Card.

2
Both Hotwire IDSL Routers operate as IP routers, connecting a DSL link to an Ethernet
network to provide high-speed Internet or corporate LAN access over a combination of
traditional twisted-pair copper telephone wiring and ISDN transport, such as T1 or fiber.
These products have three data channels that are configurable for a total of 144 kbps.

Installing DSL Access Wiring
The local loop terminates at the punchdown block or NID (Network Interface Device).
Cables must be connected from the customer premises side of the punchdown block or
NID to an RJ11 jack. Typically, the punchdown block is installed in commercial locations
and the NID is installed in residential locations.
Procedure
1. Access the punchdown block or NID.
2. Disconnect the DSL access pair from the local loop. A punchdown block is used in
the following example.
WARNING:
!
Do not continue unless the DSL access line from the local loop has been
disconnected at the NID or punchdown block. Refer to
Important Safety
Instructions
on page 21.
3. Locate the DSL pair of T1/R1 connectors on the customer premises side of the NID
or punchdown block. Attach the cable that will be connected to the DSL jack.

Connecting to the DSL Access Wiring
The Hotwire 6301 or 6302 IDSL Router connects to the local loop via wiring from the
demarcation point to an RJ11 wall jack. The DSL twisted-pair wiring from the local loop
terminates at a new or existing wall jack. It may be necessary to install a standard single
RJ11 jack or replace a single jack with a double RJ11 jack.
Procedure
1. Wiring can be run from the punchdown block or NID to a new or existing wall jack.
Match the pair colors on both ends.
2. Label the DSL jack.
3. Reconnect the DSL access pair at the punchdown block or NID. Tighten both
terminal screws with a flat-blade screwdriver.
The RJ11 6-pin jack uses the two center pins. For pin assignments, refer to
Cables and
Connectors
on page 15.

5. The Console port acts as a DCE and uses an 8-pin straight-through cable for the
connection to a VT100-compatible terminal or a PC running a terminal emulation
program. It is an optional connection that is only used for local configuration of the
router. To set up the VT100 terminal or PC for local configuration and to access the
router, refer to
Configuration Setup and Accessing the Router on page 14.

Troubleshooting
LED Symptom Action
All LEDs are on. If the LEDs remain on for more than ten minutes, the
router is not functional. Contact the service provider.
ALM LED remains on. The power-on self-test may have failed. Unplug the router
and reapply power. If the alarm LED is still on, contact the
service provider.
ALM and TST LEDs are
blinking. A firmware download may be in progress. If a firmware download is not in progress, or if the LEDs continue
blinking for more than ten minutes, contact the service
provider.
DSL LED is off or
blinking. Verify that the DSL cable is securely installed on both ends. If the problem continues, contact the service
provider.
Ethernet LED is off. Verify that the Ethernet cable is securely installed at both
ends, and at least one PC is connected and powered on.
Verify that the correct cable is installed. For a Hotwire
6301 IDSL Router, refer to Step 3 on page 8; for a Hotwire
6302 IDSL Router, refer to Step 4 on page 9.
LINE LED is off. Verify that the DSL LINE cable is securely installed on both
ends. If the problem continues, contact the service
provider.
On lineswith POTS, verify that the line has dial tone (loops
without POTS do not have dial tone). If there is no dial
tone on the POTS line, contact the service provider.
LINE LED is on but there
is no data transmission. The DSL link has been established but no data is being transmitted. Verify the Ethernet connection. If the problem
persists, contact the service provider.
LINE and Ethernet LEDs
are on and there is no
data transmission.
Both the DSL and Ethernet links have been established,
but no data is being transmitted. If the problem continues,
contact the service provider.

13
LED Symptom Action
PWR LED is off. Check that the power cord is securely installed on both
ends.
If no LEDs are on, the power supply may be defective.
Test the outlet to verify power.
If other LEDs are on, the PWR LED may be burned out.
Unplug the unit and reapply power; watch all LEDs during
the power-on self-test to verify that the PWR LED is
functioning. If the problem persists, contact the service
provider.
TST LED is on. A test initiated by the service provider may be active. Wait
ten minutes. If the TST LED does not go off, contact the
service provider.

14
Configuration Setup
The Console connection is optional, used to locally configure the router. Refer to Step 5
on page 9 of Installing the Hotwire 6301/6302 IDSL Router for details.
The Console cable is connected to a VT100-compatible terminal or a PC running a
terminal emulation program. Verify the terminal settings:
 Data rate is set to 19.2 kbps (19200 bps).
 Character length is set to 8.
 Parity is set to None.
 Stop bits is set to 1.
 Flow control is set to Off or None.
Accessing the Router
When the local console connection is first established, access control to the IDSL router
displays an initial prompt of Login>.
Procedure
1. At the initial prompt of Login>, enter the factory default Login ID of paradyne.
2. At the password> prompt, enter the factory default Password of abc123.
3. At the next prompt for System ID, the factory default is CUSTOMER>. Type show
system to display hardware/firmware information and Selftest Results.
Refer to the Hotwire DSL Routers User's Guide for configuration settings and command
line entries.
Increasing the Number of End-User Systems
The router can support differing numbers of end-user systems, depending on the
functions that are enabled and traffic loading. Typical configurations provide support for
up to 32, 64, or 256 hosts (end-user systems).
The number of end-user systems can be increased by using subnets for static
addressing, or by using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for dynamic
addressing.
Increasing the number of PCs may require cable changes. Refer to
Cables and
Connectors on page 15. Refer to the Hotwire DSL Routers User's Guide for
configuration settings and command line entries.

Optional Wall Placement
Hotwire 6301 and 6302 IDSL routers are designed for tabletop placement. The IDSL
router can also be mounted on a wall.
To mount the IDSL router, you will need:
❑Three #6 pan-head screws with anchors (e.g., molly bolts, plastic or lead anchors)
❑Drill, and the correct size drill bit for the anchors
❑Screwdriver
A template with the dimensions for the three screws is provided. See
IDSL Router
Hardware Template
on page 19.
Procedure
To mount the IDSL router:
1. Drill the correct size hole for the anchors and install them. Use the template to
gauge their placement.
2. Screw the pan-head screws into the installed anchors. Do not make them flush with
the wall. Leave enough clearance to hang the router housing from the screws.
Refer to Installing the Hotwire 6301/6302 IDSL Router on page 7 to install the cables.
