Remote RMM-700 Installation Guide
Installation
1-800-377-8766
Notes:
Connect power connector to a reliably grounded -48 VDC safety extra-low
voltage (SELV) source.
Use 16 AWG copper conductors.
Typical circuit fuse: 3 A
Step 6: Connect the Port Cables
Connect all port cables per your application. For assistance in acquiring cables, contact
Westell Customer Assistance.
Note:
When connecting the communication ports to an external device that does not
share the same earth and signal grounding system, an isolation device should be
used.
Connecting to an Asynchronous Serial Port
Asynchronous serial ports allow terminal devices with asynchronous serial ports (such
as PCs, NEs, and asynchronous modems) to connect to Remote RMM-700.
Connect one of the asynchronous serial ports (labeled
RS 232
and
RS 485/422
on the
front panel) to an external device, such as a modem:
8-pin modular plug to 8-pin modular plug rollover DTE ro DTE null RS232 cable
Male DB-25 to 8-pin modular plug DTE to DCE straight cable
Female DB-25 to 8-pin modular plug DTE to DTE null RS232 cable
Female DB-9 to 8-pin modular plug DTE to DTE null RS232 cable
Note:
Use shielded cable to ensure compliance with applicable emission standards.
Connecting to a Switched Ethernet Port
The switched Ethernet ports allow you to connect Ethernet-capable devices to Remote
RMM-700 and allow you to connect Remote RMM-700 to a LAN.
Use an 8-pin modular plug to 8-pin modular plug straight 100BaseT cable to connect
one of the switched Ethernet ports (labeled
ETHERNET
on the Remote RMM-700
front panel) to an Ethernet device on your network.
Step 7: Configure an IP Address
Configuring the IP address allows Remote RMM-700 to be accessed remotely.
