Cabling Procedure - Back Panel
Cabling your MultiAccess involves making the proper power, phone, and
ethernet connections as described below. The MultiAccess MA420 and MA820
back panels have a fan, a power plug, POWER Switch (| / O), four or eight RJ-
11 phone jacks, an Ethernet jack, and a Command jack. The MA220
backpanel has two LINE RJ-11 phone jacks, an Ethernet, LAN 1, and a
CONSOLE jack.

1. Plug one end of your RJ45 Ethernet cable into the Ethernet (MA420 &
MA820) or LAN 1 (MA220) jack on the back of the MultiAccess and the
other end to the hub on your local network.
Caution: Before connecting to the Ethernet network, make sure that the
network to which you are connecting the MultiAccess is not a 192.168.2.x
subnet. Because the MultiAccess’s factory default IP address is
192.168.2.1, connecting it to a network that has a different device at the
same IP address would cause data interference.
If it is a 192.168.2.x subnet, connect from the Administrative PC to the
MultiAccess using an RJ45 crossover cable until the MultiAccess’s IP
address has been configured. Afterwards, connect the MultiAccess into the
network with an ordinary RJ45 cable.
2. Using a standard telephone cable, connect one end of the cable to the first
RJ11 jack (1 or Line 1) on the back of the MultiAccess and the other end to
one of your phone jacks.
