5 Connect the VSR-1200’s ports to their network devices.
6 If one or more RDUs are connected to the VSR-1200, connect each RDU’s serial ports to
their network devices.
7 Connect each power supply on the VSR-1200 chassis to an outlet supplying
100–240 VAC at 47–63 Hz.
8 Use the Supervisory cable and adapter to connect the device’s Supervisory port to your
PC’s COM port.
Note: An eight-pin modular (RJ-45) to DB-9 adapter is the standard adapter to connect
the Supervisory cable to a PC. This adapter is shipped with the unit. The following
alternate adapters are also available. (Contact Encore Networks, Inc., if you need either
of these adapters.)
• An RJ-45 to DB-25 adapter for connection to most asynchronous terminals
• An RJ-45 to DB-25 modem adapter to connect a modem, for out-of-band management
or remote configuration
