Serial Cable
You must provide a serial cable to connect the MultiModemZDX to your
computer. Serial cables are available at computer stores and many office
supply stores. The cable must have a DB-25P connector at the modem end.
For IBM and compatible computers, the other end may have a DB-25P
connector or a DB-9S connector, depending on your particular computer
and whether you are using the COM1 or the COM2 serial port. The FCC
requires cables to be shielded.

Telephone Line
You must have a telephone line with a conveniently located connector
(jack) to accept the cable that comes with the MultiModemZDX. If you
do not have a telephone jack near your computer, you should install an
extension before proceeding.
In North America, telephone extension kits and accessories are available
at electronics stores and wherever telephones are sold. You may also hire
an independent contractor or your local telephone company to do the
work. If you want to add a line for your MultiModemZDX fax modem,
you must contact your telephone company.
