Safety When Working with Electricity
•Do not open the device when the power cord is connected. For systems
without a power switch and without an external power adapter, line volt-
ages are present within the device when the power cord is connected.
•For devices with an external power adapter, the power adapter shall be a
listed Limited Power Source The mains outlet that is utilized to power the
device shall be within 10 feet (3 meters) of the device, shall be easily
accessible, and protected by a circuit breaker in compliance with local regu-
latory requirements.
•For AC powered devices, ensure that the power cable used meets all appli-
cable standards for the country in which it is to be installed.
•For AC powered devices which have 3 conductor power plugs (L1, L2 &
GND or Hot, Neutral & Safety/Protective Ground), the wall outlet (or
socket) must have an earth ground.
•For DC powered devices, ensure that the interconnecting cables are rated
for proper voltage, current, anticipated temperature, flammability, and
mechanical serviceability.
•WAN, LAN & PSTN ports (connections) may have hazardous voltages
present regardless of whether the device is powered ON or OFF. PSTN
relates to interfaces such as telephone lines, FXS, FXO, DSL, xDSL, T1, E1,
ISDN, Voice, etc. These are known as “hazardous network voltages” and
to avoid electric shock use caution when working near these ports. When
disconnecting cables for these ports, detach the far end connection first.
•Do not work on the device or connect or disconnect cables during periods of
lightning activity
This device is NOT intended nor approved for connection to the PSTN. It is
intended only for connection to customer premise equipment.
This device contains no user serviceable parts. This device can only be
repaired by qualified service personnel.
In accordance with the requirements of council directive 2002/
96/EC on Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),
ensure that at end-of-life you separate this product from other
waste and scrap and deliver to the WEEE collection system in
your country for recycling.

WAN device (for example, a cable modem, DSL modem, or fiber modem). Note:
Only full duplex modes are supported.
LAN ETH 0/1 Auto-MDX Gigabit-Ethernet port, RJ-45 (see Figure 2), connect the unit to an Ethernet
LAN (for example, a PC, printer, or wireless bridge). Note: Only full duplex modes
are supported.
Console Used for service and maintenance, the Console port (see Figure 2), an RS-232 RJ-45
connector, connects the product to a serial terminal such as a PC or ASCII terminal
(also called a dumb terminal).
12V DC, 1.0A Electricity supply socket. (See Figure 2.)

Expansion port
G.SHDSL, ADSL,
EFM, X.21 or SFP
The G.SHDSL, ADSL, EFM, X.21 or SFP LEDs are located on either side of the DSL
port. ACT (when lit or blinking) shows Activity, and LINK (when lit) shows that the
DSL port is connected.
1ote EFM Link Light is Different:
There are two colors in the Link light on the EFM Daughterboard. Red
and Green, the Green will be showing anytime ANY Link is up and traf-
fic can flow. The Red Link will then blink to signify specific pairs that are
training/not up. (Please note that if the device is configured to use less
than available pairs the non-provisioned link will not be reported as
down.
Link (Green)OFF: All pairs are DOWN, and traffic will not flow
Link (Green) ON: At least on pair is UP, and traffic will flow
Link (Red): This LED will blink with a rotating pattern to indicate ports
which are still DOWN.
