Cabling the Mediant 1000
Note: Ethernet Cable Type
Any type of Ethernet cable can be used, not necessarily cross connect, because
gigabit connect detects cable type and adjusts settings accordingly. Older systems
may require cross cable.
Connecting to Ground
The device must be permanently connected to ground, using an equipment-grounding
conductor.
Caution: Protective Grounding
The equipment is classified as Class I EN60950 and UL60950 and must be grounded
at all times.
To ground the device:
1 Connect an electrically grounded strap of 16 AWG wire (minimum) to the chassis'
grounding screw (located on the rear panel), using the supplied washer.
2 Connect the other end of the strap to a protective grounding. This should be in
accordance with the regulations enforced in the country of installation.
Connecting to the LAN
The CRMX module provides three 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports for
connection to the LAN.
To connect the device to the LAN using the GbE port:
1 Attach one end of a straight-through RJ-45 Ethernet Cat 6 or Cat 5e (two-pair Category
5 UTP) cable to any of the module's LAN ports.
2 Attach the other end of the cable directly to the LAN network (e.g., to a Ethernet switch
or computer).
