Modem jack

In areas where an internal modem is installed as
standard equipment, there is a modem jack that
lets you use a modular cable to connect the
modem directly to a telephone line.

In case of a lightning storm, unplug the modem cable from the
telephone jack.

Do not connect the modem to a digital telephone line. A digital line will
damage the modem.
