CHAPTER 4: Operation
NOTE
For most applications, a straight-through-pinned cable is
used to attach an Extender Unit to a DTE “destination
device” such as a PC, while a cross-pinned cable is used to
attach an Extender unit to a DCE “communication device”
such as a hub or router. If you’re not sure which type of
cable to use with a device, consult its manual and/or check
the pinout of its port(s); if these aren’t available or you’re
still not sure, call Black Box Technical Support.
9. Perform step 8 at the other site with your
Subscriber Unit.
Once the two Units have established both DSL and
Ethernet link at their sites, data will flow normally
between the Units, essentially creating a very long
Ethernet connection at SDSL speeds. The Extender
should now operate continuously without requiring
operator intervention.
