4.4. Cable Connection
Connect cables and telco line as described in the sections that follow. Please refer to
Appendix A for a description of Port interfaces.
4.4.1.
Modem Port
The serial Modem Port is used for connection to your secure device. Use a straight wired
modem cable to connect the secure device to the SRM-100 serial Modem Port. For a
description of the Modem Port interface, please refer to Appendix A.
4.4.2.
Console Port
The SRM Command Mode allows the system administrator to define passwords, select
configuration parameters, and review the connection activity log. There are two different ways
to access the Command Mode: via modem or via a local PC connected to the SRM
Console Port.
If your SRM will be controlled and configured via the Console Port, use an appropriate cable
to connect the Console Port to the COM port on your PC or terminal. Appendix A describes
the Console Port interface. Note that if your installation will be controlled and configured via
modem, it is not necessary to connect a PC to the Console Port.
4.4.3.
Telco Line
Use a standard RJ11 phone cable to connect your phone line outlet to the Telco Line port on the
SRM back panel. If the SRM's Telco Line port includes two RJ11 connectors, connect your
phone line to the connector labeled "Wall" or "Line".
