¾ With RJ-48c Connectors, take these 2 steps:
1. Connect the E1/T1 trunk cables to the ports labeled “Trunks 1 to 8” (in the case of the 8-
trunk device) on the Mediant 2000 RTM.
2. Connect the other ends of the Trunk cables to the PBX/PSTN switch.
RJ-48c trunk connectors are wired according to Figure
2-7 below.

2.4.2 Installing the Ethernet Connection
Connect a standard Category 5 network cable to the Ethernet RJ-45 port (and the other as
optional redundancy/backup). Connect the other end of the Category 5 network cables to your IP
network. The Ethernet connectors (labeled Ethernet 1 and Ethernet 2) are wired according to
Figure
2-8.
Note that for redundant operation it is recommended to connect each of the Ethernet connectors
to a different switch.
When assigning an IP address to the Mediant 2000 using HTTP (under step
1 in Section 3.1.1),
you may be required to disconnect this cable and re-cable it differently.
