Figure 3.1 - Cheetah iSharer-3010 Hardware Installation
1. Connect one end of an RS-232 serial cable (not included in the package) to the
modem or ISDN TA, and the other end to the DB-9 serial port labeled “Modem1”
on the back of the Cheetah iSharer-3010.
2. Connect a dedicated phone line to a modem or ISDN TA.
3. Connect the power adapter to a modem or ISDN TA, and turn on the power. We
suggest connecting and configuring a single modem first. You can add a second
modem if needed, repeating the same procedure for setting up the first modem.
4. Use standard twisted-pair Ethernet cable to connect computers or any other
Ethernet devices to the RJ-45 ports of the Cheetah iSharer-3010.
5. Plug the CheetahiSharer-3010’s power supply into an AC power outlet, then plug
the power supply output cable into the power connector on the rear of the unit.
The Power LED should light up immediately.
Note:
The Cheetah iSharer-3010 includes an eight-port hub. Use straight-through
UTP cables to connect computers or other end stations to any RJ-45 port on
the rear panel. (Set Port 8 to “MDI-X” when connecting these kinds of
devices.) Port 8 can be adjusted to serve as an uplink port by setting the slide
switch to “MDI”. When set to this position, you can use straight-through UTP
cable to attach this port to a standard port (that uses an internal crossover)
on another hub or a switch.
