Connecting to the DSL Access Wiring
The Hotwire 6341 or 6342 SDSL Router 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.
Procedure
1. Wiring can be run from the punchdown block or NID to a new or existing wall jack.
Match the pair colors on both ends.
2. Label the DSL jack.
3. Reconnect the DSL access pair at the punchdown block or NID. Tighten both
terminal screws with a flat-blade screwdriver.
The RJ11 6-pin jack uses the two center pins. For pin assignments, refer to
Cables and
Connectors
on page 14.
