Cabling your MultiFRAD 3000
Cabling your MultiFRAD involves making the proper Power, Command Port, Ethernet, and Channel
connections. Figure 3 shows the back panel connectors and the associated cable connections. The
MF3060 supports up to 6 data channels and the MF3100 supports up to 10 data channels. The MF
3060 cannot be upgraded to support 10 channels. Table 1 details the procedures for connecting the
cables to your MultiFRAD.

Step Procedure
1 Connect one end of an DB-25 cable to each of the data channel connectors on the back of
your MultiFRAD (labeled CHANNEL 1-6 for the MF3060, CHANNEL 1-10 for the MF3100).
See Figure 3. Connect the other end of each cable to the channel devices. Repeat for each
of the up to 6 or 10 channels you are connecting.
NOTE: only Channels 1 and 2 support the RS232/V.35 protocol, and all channels support
either asynchronous or HDLC synchronous RS232 data equipment such as multiplexers.
2 Connect one end of an DB-25 (female) cable to the Ext. Composite Link Connector on the
back of the MultiFRAD (as shown in Figure 3). Connect the other cable end to your T1 CSU/
DSU or compatible link device.
3 If you have a LAN, make the network connection by connecting a RJ-45 (UTP) cable to the
10 BASE-T Ethernet connector (shown in Figure 3) on the back of the MultiFRAD. Connect
the other end of the cable to your LAN.
