5.2 Connecting to the IP Network
The procedure below describes how to connect to the Ethernet (IP) network (e.g., switch).
An RJ-45 cable connector with the following pinouts is used:
Figure 5-1: RJ-45 Connector Pinouts for Ethernet Network
To connect the device to the Ethernet network:
1. On the CPU module, connect the first Ethernet port (labeled I) directly to the Ethernet
network, using a straight-through RJ-45 Ethernet cable.
2. Optionally, for Ethernet redundancy, connect the second Ethernet port (labeled II) to
the Ethernet network.
Note: For Ethernet redundancy, it is recommended to connect each of the Ethernet
ports to a different switch.
5.3 Connecting to FXS Interfaces
The procedure below describes how to connect to FXS interfaces (e.g., fax machines,
modems, and plain old telephone system / POTS telephones).
Warnings:
• Ensure that FXS ports are connected to the appropriate external devices;
otherwise, damage to the device may occur.
• The FXS ports are considered as TNV-2.
Note: This section is applicable only if your device is installed with an FXS module.
An RJ-11 cable connector with the following pinouts is used:

To connect to FXS interfaces:
Using an RJ-11 connector, connect the FXS port/s to the required telephone interface.
