3 Connect telephone (POTS) service
The zNID provides two phone lines. Line one can be used to provide both
HPNA and POTS to deliver phone service and any packet services
including IPTV, data, and VoIP. Line 2 is used to provide POTS service
For the FTTH Application Guide we will use Voice Line 1.
For our lab scenario we are going to connect data and video to one of the
Ethnernet lines rather than connecting HPNA over the POTS line. We will
connect a phone to the POTS port.
The zNID 42xx series is designed to support either RJ-11 connectors or
individual tip ring lines. For the application guide we will describe
connecting RJ-11.
a Provide a POTS telephone with RJ-11 cable attached.
b Remove the connector from the upper RJ-11 voice port.
c Attach the RJ-11 connector from the phone to the open voice port.
Note which telephone port as we will configure that port for VoIP in
Chapter 4, GPON and Active Ethernet UI based zNID.
4 Connect Ethernet service
The zNID provides three RJ 45s for Ethernet connections. Ethernet
connections can be used to deliver any packet services including IPTV,
data, and VoIP.
