Installing the Smart-DTA
Smart-DTA hardware installation consists of the following:
•
Placing the device at the desired installation location (see section

When you finish installing the Smart-DTA, go to chapter 4,
“Smart-DTA Quick start”
on page 25.
Placing the Smart-DTA
Place the Smart-DTA on a desktop or similar sturdy, flat surface that offers easy access to the cables. The unit
should be installed in a dry environment with sufficient space to allow air circulation for cooling.
Note
For proper ventilation, leave at least 2 inches (5 cm) to the left, right, front,
and rear of the unit.
Installing cables
Connect the cables in the following order:
1. Connect the ISDN terminal to the BRI port (see section
“Connecting the S-DTA to the ISDN terminals”
on page 22).
2. Connect the 10/100Base-T Ethernet WAN (see section
“Connecting the Smart-DTA to the IP network”
on page 22)
3. Connect the power supply (see section
“Connecting the Smart-DTA to the power supply”
on page 23)
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of
lightning activity.
