1. Open the unit by gently inserting a screwdriver between the
DB-9 connector and the lip of the plastic case (see below).
You don't have to worry about breaking the plastic, but be
careful not to bend the D-sub connector.
Once the unit has been opened, you will be able to see the
terminal blocks located at the rear of the PC board.
2. Strip the outer insulation from the twisted pairs about one inch
from the end.
3. Strip the insulation on each of the twisted pair wires about
.25”.

When connecting two Model 1006s, it is necessary to use a “cross-
over” cable. The diagram below shows how a crossover cable should
be constructed for an environment where both Model 1006s use a
4-wire RJ-11 connector. Similar logic should be followed when using
RJ-45 connectors or a combination of the two.

3.1.2 TWISTED PAIR CONNECTION USING TERMINAL BLOCKS
If your RS-232 application requires you to connect two pairs of bare
wires to the Model 1006, you will need to open the case to access the
terminal blocks. The following instructions will tell you how to open the
case, connect the bare wires to the terminal blocks and fasten the strain
relief collar in place so that the wires won't pull loose.
