Connecting the 10/100Base-T Ethernet port to an Ethernet-capable
workstation or PC
The 10/100Base-T Ethernet port can connect to a single Ethernet-capable workstation or PC by means of a
cross-over cable. Refer to figure 10 to assemble a cross-connect cable that will connect between the NIC
Ethernet port in the workstation and the DACS 10/100Base-T Ethernet port.

Connecting the EIA-561 RS-232 configuration port (DCE configured)
Install the supplied RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cable with the DB9-RJ45 adapter between the DACS RS-232 port (see
figure 8 on page 26) and an open serial port on your computer. If you need to assemble your own cable, refer
to the pinout diagram in figure 11.

Connecting to the T1/E1 WAN ports
An active T1/E1 is not necessary to configure the DACS. However, an active T1/E1 connection is required
when mapping mDSL modems to specific time slots in the T1/E1 ports or even for mapping WAN time
slots to other WAN time slots. The factory-set default configuration of the access server has the T1/E1
ports disabled.
Note The cable connecting the T1/E1 WAN ports to the RJ-48C termina-
tion jack should be CAT-3 or higher and extend no farther than
1 mile (1.6 km) from the digital services termination.
1. Connect the 68-pin SCSI connector of the WAN cable to the connector on the rear panel of the
Model 3095. Refer to “Appendix B” on page 73 for the T1/E1 connector and pin number designations.
