Network Connections
The following sections describe how to connect various network cables to the Alcatel
OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router.
Connecting the Ethernet Cable
The front panel on the router accommodates one LAN connections. Use a category 5,
twisted-pair Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors to connect to the LAN. Refer to Figure 8 on
page 16 to identify this cable.
Follow this procedure to connect the OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604
to an Ethernet LAN network.
1
Connect the RJ-45 connector of a category 5 rated Ethernet cable to either the Ethernet 0
or Ethernet 1 port on the back panel.
2
Connect the RJ-45 connector on the other end of the cable to the LAN port.
Make sure that the cable connectors are locked and secure in the ports. See Table 25 on page
63 for pinout information about this cable.
Figure 18 Connecting the Ethernet Cable
Connecting the WAN Cable
The back panel accommodates up to two WAN (model specific) cables. Use 26 AWG (minimum)
category 5, twisted-pair cable with RJ-48C connectors for this interface. Refer to Figure 9 on
page 17 to identify this cable.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of fire, use only number 26 AWG or larger UL Listed or CSA Certified
Telecommunication Line Cord for all network connections.
Follow this procedure to connect a WAN port to the network:
1
Insert the RJ-48C connectors on one end of one cable in the appropriate port on the
Service Provider’s demarcation point.
2
Insert the RJ-48C connectors on the other ends of the cables in the WAN ports on the front
panel of the Alcatel router.
Make sure that the cable connectors are locked and secure in the ports. See Table 26 on page
63 for pinout information about this cable.
