Connecting to the DSL Access Wiring
The Hotwire 5216 RTU connects to the local loop via wiring from the demarcation point
to an RJ11 wall jack. The DSL twisted-pair wiring from the local loop terminates at a
new or existing wall jack. It may be necessary to install a standard single RJ11 jack or
replace a single jack with a double RJ11 jack.
