2 Installation
Please refer to Appendix C for country-specific information.
2.1 Pre-Installation
In addition to your DTE, and depending on the way you set up and intend
to use your modem, you may need:
• A 25-pin male D-type (ISO 2110) cable to connect the modem to the DTE
(your computer or terminal). See Appendix B for details of the pin
connections.
• A telephone line (PSTN or leased), terminated with a standard socket.
• For asynchronous command of your modem you will need a separate
asynchronous command terminal with a V.24/RS-232-C serial port.
• For the standalone modem, a mains power socket outlet installed near
the modem, easily accessible, and capable of supplying 1.0 amps at the
nominal voltage and frequency.
The modem is designed for use in a domestic, office or computer room
environment. The standalone modem should be sited:
• Sufficiently close to the mains power outlet so as not to cause strain on
the connecting cable.
• Sufficiently close to the PSTN or leased line termination so as not to
cause strain on the connecting cord.
• Away from sources of heat such as radiators or direct sunlight.
• Away from sources of radiation such as motors and video displays.
