Cabling Procedure

To connect Ethernet cables to the rear panel Ethernet ports:

1. Locate the Ethernet cables you plan to connect to the Acme Packet 6300/6350.
2. Insert the RJ45 connector on the end of the Ethernet cable into one of the NIU management Ethernet ports. These ports are labeled Mgmt0, Mgmt1, and Mgmt2. The release tab on the RJ45 jack will click into place when you insert it properly.
