Installing an interface cable on the SmartNode’s FXS and FXO interface ports
Some models of the SmartNode include two to four FXS or FXO analog ports—or a combination of FXS and
FXO ports—located on the back of the unit (see
figure 2
on page 17). The FXS interfaces are connected to analog
devices via cables (see
figure 6
) terminated with RJ-11 connectors. The FXO interface connects the SmartNode
with analog lines via cables terminated with RJ-11 connectors.

Connecting ISDN terminals and NT to the SmartNode’s ISDN BRI ports
The SmartNode comes with two to eight (depending on the model) ISDN BRI ports located on the rear panel
(see
figure 2
on page 17). All ports can be connected to the PSTN (ISDN NT) or terminals
For details on the BRI port pinout and ISDN cables, refer to
Appendix C, “Cabling”
on page 45 and
Appendix
D, “Port pin-outs”
on page 48.
Connecting the SmartNode to the IP network
The SmartNode comes with four 10/100 Base-Tx Ethernet ports for connection to an IP network. The Ether-
net WAN interface is factory-configured as a DHCP client, so you must connect the SmartNode to an IP net-
work that provides a DHCP server.
The Ethernet port (ETH) includes an automatic MDX (auto-crossover) feature that automatically detects the
cable configuration and adjusts accordingly. The feature allow you to use a straight-through Ethernet cable to
connect to an Ethernet hub or switch. Typically the hub or switch will connect to a router that provides the the
local-residential IP network with broadband Internet access.
Using the included black Ethernet cable, connect the RJ-45 Ethernet WAN port on your SmartNode (labeled
ETH), to an Ethernet hub or switch on the same network as your PC.
For details on the Ethernet port pinout and cables, refer to
Appendix C, “Cabling”
on page 45 and
Appendix
D, “Port pin-outs”
on page 48.
Connecting the SmartNode’s DSL port (SN4670 series only)
The SmartNode Models 4670 and 4671 come with a G.SHDSL or ADSL interface. Use a straight-through RJ-
45 cable to connect the DSL port.
