Connecting the Telephone Line Port
!
Safety Warning
The SmartServer’s telephone modem must only be used with telephone circuits equipped
with proper lightning and transient protection circuitry. This minimizes the risk of shock
or damage should lightning strike on or near a telephone circuit to which the SmartServer
is connected.
For SmartServer models 72102, which contain a 56K V.90 analog modem, you can connect the RJ-11
telephone line port. This enables the SmartServer to make dial-out connections to TCP/IP networks.
To connect the telephone line port on the SmartServer, you connect one end of a compatible two-wire
POTS line with a suitable male RJ-11 connector to the telephone line port on the SmartServer and then
connect the other end to a POTS line connection. The SmartServer analog modem is not compatible
with ISDN circuits.

Caution
To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord
Applying Power to the SmartServer
Once you have mounted the SmartServer, connected all the wiring, and closed the enclosure, you can
apply power to the SmartServer. The LEDs on the SmartServer will flash for several minutes as the
unit boots. Once the unit is powered and operational, the green Power/Wink LED will stay solid ON.
