Installation cable requirements for the DSL WAN cable (SN4670 only)
The SmartNode Model comes with an option for a G.SHDSL, ADSL, ADD EFM or Fiber interface. Use a
straight-through RJ-45 cable to connect the G.SHDSL port.
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 50 and
Appendix
D, “Port Pin-outs”
on page 53.
Connecting the SmartNode’s DSL, EFM or Fiber port (SN4670 series only)
The SmartNode Models 4670 and 4671 come with a G.SHDSL, ADSL, EFM or Fiber interface. Use a
straight-through RJ-45 cable to connect the DSL port or a fiber optic cable to connect to the SFP port.
