Cable  Cabling Procedure 
RJ-45 Ethernet 
cable 
Connect the Ethernet connection on the MP-11x directly to the network using a 
cross-over Ethernet cable. For connector pinouts, refer to Figure  2-5. 
Note that when assigning an IP address to the MP-11x using HTTP (under Step  1 
in Section  3.1.1), you may be required to disconnect this cable and re-cable it 
differently. 
Connect the RJ-11 FXS connectors to fax 
machines, modems, or phones. 
RJ-11 two-wire 
telephone cords 
Connect the RJ-11 FXO connectors to 
telephone exchange analog lines or PBX 
extensions. 
Ensure that FXS and FXO ports 
are connected to the correct 
devices, otherwise damage can 
occur. 
The RJ-11 pinouts are described in 
Figure  2-6). 
RS-232 serial 
cable 
Using a standard RS-232 straight cable (not a cross-over cable) with DB-9 
connectors, connect the MP-11x RS-232 port (using a DB-9 to PS/2 adaptor) to 
either COM1 or COM2 RS-232 communication port on your PC. The pinouts of the 
PS/2 connector are shown in Figure  2-7. 
A PS/2 to DB-9 adaptor is not included with the MP-11x package. For the PS/2 to 
DB-9 pinouts, refer to Figure  2-8.
