5.3 Connecting the 10BASE-T Ethernet Port to a Hub (DCE)
The 10BASE-T interface is configured as DTE (Data Terminal Equipment), just
like a 10BASE-T network interface card in a PC. Therefore, it “expects” to connect
to a 10BASE-T hub using a straight-through RJ-45 cable. Use Figure 5-4 to
construct a cable to connect the 10BASE-T interface to a 10BASE-T hub.

5.4 Power Connection
The mDSL Line Driver uses a 5-VDC, 2-A, 100- to 240-VAC universal input power
supply (center pin is +5V). The power supply has a male IEC-320 power entry
connector. This power supply connects to the Line Driver via a barrel jack on the
rear panel.
WARNING
There are no user-serviceable parts in the Line Driver’s power supply.
Contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500 for details.
