1. Connect the RouteFinder to your PC using the short RJ-45 to DB9 (female) cable provided with
your unit.
Plug the RJ-45 end of the cable into the Command Port on the RouteFinder. Plug the other end
(DB9 female connector) into a COM port on the PC. See Figure 2-2.
2. Connect an RJ-48 cable to the T1 DSU connector on the back panel connector and connect the
other end to the T1 service.
3. Connect an Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 cable to the 10Base-T connector on the back panel
connector and connect the other end to your Ethernet connector.
4. Connect one end of the power supply to a live AC outlet, then connect the other end to the
POWER connector on the RouteFinder as shown in Figure 2-2. The power connector is a 6-pin
circular DIN connection.
5. Turn on power to the RouteFinder by setting the ON/OFF switch on the back panel to the ON
position. At this time your RouteFinder is completely cabled and powered On.
Optional WAN 2 Cabling
The MTASR2-203 provides an optional RS-232/V.35 port for a second T1 connection or dial back-up
connectivity.
Note: If the WAN link needs to be changed to a V.35 interface, perform the “Changing Shunt Position”
described in Appendix C.
1. Connect an RS-232C/D or V.35 interface cable to the back panel RS-232/V.35 connector as shown
in Figure 2-2.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the appropriate connector on the external link device (WAN
connection).
