Figure 1-3 Connector numbering 

 

The VoIP port is on the left of each row of five RJ45 connectors. 

NOTE 

The rating label for the power supply is visible on the top cover of the 
chassis. 

1.3

 

Powering the system on 

Connect power cords to the system according to the following procedure: 

  Check that the electrical outlet is grounded and it is within the permitted range 

shown on the rating label. 

  Plug both power cords into the AC or DC power inlet sockets on the rear of the 

chassis. 

  Connect the other ends of the power cords into suitable electrical outlets. 

  Connect E1/T1 or Ethernet network cables as required. The type of cables and 

connectors used depend upon the interface mix contained with the system. 

  The system may now be powered up by momentarily pressing the power button 

on the front panel. 

1.4

 

Powering the system off 

An active system can be placed into a low power standby state by momentarily 
pressing the power button on the front panel. This will trigger a controlled shutdown of 
the operating system software. 

In the standby state, the unit can be reactivated by momentarily pressing the power 
button on the front panel. 

To completely remove all power from the unit, isolate both power inlets from the 
mains supply. 

It is recommended to maintain a 15 second gap between each power off and power 
on cycle. 

1.5

 

E1/T1 trunk connections 

Each connector carries connections for two trunks, which must be split into separate 
RJ45 connectors prior to attaching to network equipment. Please consult the 
GroomerII User Guide for information on identifying trunks.
