Prestige 650 ADSL Router
2-4 Hardware Installation and Initial Setup
2.2.1 DSL Port
Connect the Prestige directly to the wall jack using the included DSL cable. Connect a microfilter(s)
between the wall jack and your telephone(s). A microfilter acts as low-pass filter (voice transmission takes
place in the 0 to 4KHz bandwidth) and is an optional purchase.
2.2.2 Console Port
Use terminal emulator software on a computer for configuring your Prestige via console port. Connect the
7-pin end of the supplied console cable to the console port of the Prestige and the 9-pin female end to a
serial port (COM1, COM2 or other COM port) of your computer.
2.2.3 LAN 10/100M Port
Ethernet 10Base-T/100Base-T networks use Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable with RJ-45 connectors
(ISDN) or RJ-11 connectors (POTS) that look like a bigger telephone plug with 8 pins. Use the crossover
cable to connect your Prestige to a computer directly or use a straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to
an external hub, then connect one end of the straight-through cable from the hub to the NIC on the
computer.
When the Prestige is on and properly connected to a computer or a hub, the
corresponding LAN LED on the front panel turns on.
2.2.4 Power Port
Connect the power adapter to the port labeled POWER on the rear panel of your Prestige.
To avoid damage to the Prestige, make sure you use the correct power adapter.
Refer to the Power Adapter Specification Appendix for this information.
