June 2005 Installing the RLC
3 Verify that the host PBX recognizes the presence of the RLC. (Refer to the
documentation specific to your PBX for exact procedures.)
Note: When you run diagnostic tests after installing a double-slot RLC into
a CS 2100 PBX, the second slot fails. Ignore the diagnostic test.
Connecting the cables to an RLC
To connect the cables for an RLC:
1 Plug P1 of the RLC Multi-I/O cable (Basic or Enhanced), the female 25-pair
connector, into the 25-pair shelf connector associated with the slot
occupied by the RLC.
Note: If you are connecting the cables to a 32-channel RLC, use the shelf
connector associated with the first of the two slots occupied by the RLC.
2 Plug P2 , the male DB-15 connector (if using the Enhanced cable, this is the
first male DB-15 connector), into a DB-15 to RJ-45 adapter (NT7R93CA).
Note: The RLC Multi-I/O cable–Enhanced ships with this adapter. This
adapter is not an active transceiver.
a. Plug one end of a shielded (to meet CISPR B requirements) CAT 5
data cable of sufficient length to reach your Ethernet hub into the other
side of the DB15 to RJ45 adapter connected to P2.
b. Plug the other end of the CAT5 data cable into your Ethernet hub.
c. Proceed to step 4.
3 Plug P2 , the male DB-45 connector into a female RJ-45 connector at one
end of a shielded (to meet CISPR B requirements) CAT 5 data cable of
sufficient length to reach your Ethernet hub.
Plug the other end of the CAT5 data cable into your Ethernet hub.
