To connect Ethernet cables to the GbE copper ports on the NIU:
1. Locate the Ethernet cables you plan to connect to the Acme Packet 4500.
2. Insert the RJ45 connector on the end of the Ethernet cable into one of the GbE
copper NIU media and signaling ports. The release tab on the RJ45 jack will click
into place when you insert it properly. These media and signaling ports from left
to right are labeled:
S0P0 , S0P1 , S1P0 , S1P1 .
