This guide is for the CSX154 and the CSX155; collectively known as the CSX150 Series. To simplify

the documentation, throughout this guide we will refer to these products as CSX150.

Follow the instructions in this guide for installing the CyberSWITCH, powering it up, and making

any necessary changes to the default configuration values. Perform the steps in order; skipping the

sections that pertain to options you will not use.

We include the following chapters:

•Cabling

Provides you with instructions for connecting the CyberSWITCH to your PC, several methods

for ISDN connections, and completing a POTS connection.

•Basics

This chapter gives detailed instructions on the initial installation steps that are required for all

CyberSWITCH configurations.

• Connectivity

This chapter gives instructions for connecting two of our products together via PPP. Separate

instructions are provided for bridging, IP, IPX, and AppleTalk configurations.

• Special Features

The Special Features sections discusses two features, POTS and Hardware Filtering, that are

unique to the CSX150.

• Troubleshooting

Provides an explanation of the CSX150 LED indicators: how to interpret them and corrective

actions to take.

ABLING

CyberSWITCH cabling includes the following:

• connecting your PC to the CyberSWITCH

• providing an ISDN connection for the CyberSWITCH

• optional: connecting telephone devices to the CyberSWITCH using a POTS connection

• connecting the CyberSWITCH to the provided power supply

This chapter describes each of the cabling processes.

Note: If a cable you need is not among the cables included with your CyberSWITCH shipment,

order the cable separately through Cabletron or your distributor.

THE PC TO CYBERSWITCH CONNECTION

There are several options available for connecting your PC to the CyberSWITCH. There are three

LAN connection methods (using a 10BaseT Hub, 10BaseT Direct, or 10Base2 connection), or you

can use an AMP connection. Referto the sectionthatdescribes the PC to CyberSWITCH connection

you will use.

USING A10BASET HUB LAN CONNECTION

If you plan on using a 10BaseT Hub to connect one or more PCs to the CyberSWITCH, this is the

type of connection you will use.

Use the following graphic and instructions to complete the connection.

1. Connect your PC to the Hub using the supplied straight through cable (RJ-45 connectors with

twisted pair).

2. Connect the Hub to the CyberSWITCH, also using straight through cable.

USING A10BASET DIRECT LAN CONNECTION

If you plan on connecting your PC directly to an CyberSWITCH, this is the type of connection you

will use.

Use the following graphic and instructions to complete the connection.

1. Connect your PC to the CyberSWITCH using a crossover cable. This cable is a custom made

cable using RJ-45 connectors and twisted pair. Order this cable through Cabletron or your

Distributor.

The crossover cable allows your PC and the CyberSWITCH to communicate directly, without

a Hub between them.
