Instruction manual

Connecting the SDSL Line

An SNE2000-S must be connected via an SDSL line to an SNE2000-P, a Mini DSLAM, a

Micro DSLAM or an IP DSLAM interface module. Likewise, an SNE2000Q-S must be

connected via SDSL line to an SNE2000Q-P, Mini DSLAM, Micro DSLAM or IP DSLAM

interface module. Neither a subscriber-to-subscriber nor a provider-to-provider

connection will function.

Procedure

1. Plug your SDSL cable into the SDSL RJ45 port on the back of the SNE2000.

2. Verify the connection: the SDSL Connection LED on the front of the SNE2000 will

pulse green to indicate the connection is established and operational.

Link up time between local and remote SDSL network extenders can vary from one to

five minutes depending on the quality, gauge and distance of the copper cable. If cable

distance is greater than a particular bandwidth will support, the units may not link up or,

if they do achieve a link, traffic quality may be affected.

Connecting the Ethernet Line

Procedure

1. Plug the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet Connection RJ45 port on the back of the

SNE2000.

2. Verify the connection: solid illumination of the Ethernet Connection Lnk LED on the

front of the SNE2000 indicates a link has been established, if an SDSL connection

has already been made. If an SDSL connection has not yet been made, the

Ethernet link will remain disabled (as indicated by solid illumination of the Ethernet

Rx, Tx and Lnk LEDs) until the SDSL link has been established.

NOTE: For most applications, the SNE2000 connects to a PC using a straight-through

Ethernet cable and to a hub or a switch using a crossover Ethernet cable.
