The simplest and fastest way to set up the Modems for immediate use is to
select one of the factory-preset Quick Setup configurations.
Quick Setups are explained in Section 2.3, following installation instructions
(Section 2.1) and a brief introduction to the Modem’s front-panel display and
controls (Section 2.2).

NPACKING
Many early modem failures are a result of damage done during shipping.
Visually inspect your modem. Keep the original shipping carton in case
you have to return the modem for any reason.

ONTENTS
All models include the following cables:
• A two-conductor crossover cable for a dial-line connection.
• A four-conductor cable for a leased-line connection.
Both cables have an eight-pin modular connector (RJ-45) on one end and
a six-pin modular connector (RJ-12) on the other end. You will need to use
both of the supplied cables if you want to use the Modem for Leased-Line
Auto Recovery, which requires both a leased-line and dial-line connection.
The MD885A-R2, MD885AE-R2, and MD885A-R3 include a power supply.
The MD885A-R3 package also includes additional cables:
• (1) 10-ft. RS-232 cable
• (1) DB9 F to DB25 M adapter

• You will need an EIA RS-232 interface cable (supplied with the MD885A-
R3, not supplied with the MD885A-R2, MD885AE-R2, or MD885C-R2) to
connect the Modem to a DTE (data terminal equipment, usually a
computer).
