NSTALLATION
FCC rules require interconnecting cables carrying high-speed data be shielded
appropriately minimizing radio frequency interference.
Network
Management
The network management port is an RS-232 COM port connecting the PRISM
3301 to either a terminal, an external modem, or terminal server for remote
configuration, testing, and alarm reporting and monitoring. This port is supported
by a DB-9 female connector per EIA/TIA-574 specification.
An RS-232 DB-9 male connector is needed to connect this port to a dial-up
modem (Hayes SmartModem or equivalent), or a PC. Make sure the connector
supports DTR and DCD signals.
