Option 1: Install ADSL Filter/s yourself
•
All telephone equipment must be filtered in an ADSL installation. This includes corded
& cordless phones, answering machines, faxes, caller display units, analogue modem
(including such devices as a Sky digital decoder with integrated modem), dedicated
diallers, Etc. Filtering telephone equipment is as simple as plugging the XH7556 DSE
ADSL filter in-line with the device/s.
•
Your ADSL modem will be the only device that can connect directly to your jackpoint.
However should an adaptor be required between the plug on the modem cord and
the jackpoint, or you wish to connect telephone equipment to the same jackpoint, the
DSE ADSL filter can be used by plugging the modem into the “ADSL” socket.
•
Do not plug an ADSL modem into the “PHONE” socket if the modem cord has this
type of plug.
•
It is important that the filter is connected the right way around.
- The lead coming out of the side marked “LINE” is plugged into the telephone
jackpoint
- Non-ADSL telephone equipment then plugs into the “PHONE” socket on the filter
- The ADSL modem plugs into the “ADSL” socket on the filter.
•
Up to 5 filters can be used on a single telephone line. If you need to install more than
5 filters, a central splitter must be installed by Telecom.
•
If you need to connect more than one item of telephone equipment at the same
jackpoint, then a double adaptor can be plugged into the “PHONE” socket of this
filter.
•
This Line Filter has an RJ11 “ADSL” socket incorporated. Only ADSL modems may
be plugged into this socket.
CAUTION:
Failure to connect ALL telephone type equipment via a filter will result in loss of the
data link whenever a call is made or answered. In many cases the link will also be
lost when a call is received, even if it is not answered.
Option 2: Have an ADSL splitter professionally installed
•
Contact Telecom on 123 to arrange for a central splitter to be installed.
