Connection to Supply Mains
Important
The wires in the mains lead supplied with this equipment are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow
Blue
Brown
Earth
Neutral
Live
As the colours of the cores in the mains lead of this equipment may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
•
The core which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol , or coloured green and yellow.
•
The core which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.
•
The core which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
SAFETY WARNING
This equipment must be earthed.
For pluggable equipment, the mains socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment and be easily accessible.
Interconnection circuits between this modem and any other equipment should be such that the equipment continues to comply with the requirements of clause 4.2 of EN41003 for TNV (Telephone Network Voltage) circuits and clause 2.3 of EN60950 for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) circuits after making connection between circuits.
The power supply must be properly connected and switched on before the modem will work correctly.
Ringer Equivalence Number
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a customer guide indicating approximately the maximum number of items of apparatus that should be connected simultaneously to the telephone line. The sum of the RENs should not exceed 4. This value includes any BT provided instrument which may be assumed to have an REN of 1 unless marked otherwise. The REN of the 3900 Series modems is 3.
Warning. Do not connect any other items of apparatus in parallel with this modem.
2
Telephone Line
These modems may be connected to the following circuits:
•
Direct exchange lines of the public switched telephone network, but not shared service or 1 plus 1 carrier systems. The line should provide either loop disconnect or multifrequency signalling.
•
Private speechband circuits provided by British Telecommunications, Hull City Council or Mercury
Communications Limited.
•
They may also be connected as an extension to a compatible PABX, although there is no guarantee of correct working in all circumstances.
This modem is suitable for connection to BT circuits with signalling at a nominal frequency of 2280 Hz and may be connected to multipoint or point-to-point circuits. The apparatus does not require signalling or otherwise use the frequency range 0–200 Hz.
No d.c. interaction is intended between the modem and the B.T. network.
This apparatus may be directly connected to a speechband circuit or connected to relevant branch system for speechband circuits.
Receive-to-Transmit Loss (RTL)
The RTL measurement provides an indication of the signal attenuation between the receive pair and transmit pair of a four-wire circuit. The RTL number for the 3900 Series modems is 75.
The sum of the RTL numbers of terminal apparatus at opposite ends of a particular point-to-point circuit shall be equal to or greater than 28; and in the case of apparatus permitted connection before 5 August 1984 it shall be assumed for the purpose of this calculation to have an RTL number of 14 unless it has been tested and specially allocated a number other than this.
Apparatus having an RTL number greater than 47 must be used to terminate the distant end of this circuit.
Failure to do so is a breach of the conditions of approval of this apparatus.
Connection Arrangements
If any other apparatus, including cable or wiring, is connected between the apparatus and the point of connection to any speechband circuit, then all that other apparatus shall comply with the following:
1. The overall transmission characteristics of all that other apparatus shall be such as to introduce no material effect upon the electrical conditions presented to one another by the apparatus and the speechband circuit; and
2. All that other apparatus shall comprise only:
(i) apparatus approved for the purpose of connection between the apparatus and a speechband circuit;
and
(ii) cable or wiring complying with a code of practice for the installation of equipment covered by this
part of BS6328 or such other requirements as may be applicable.

Model 3910 Modem Installation
The following procedures describe how to connect the standalone modem to the leased line, dial line, and power supply.
Before installing your modem, make sure your installation site is clean and well-ventilated. Allow space around the modem for installing cables and telephone cords, and make sure the modem is located within reach of the ac power outlet. The distance between your modem and DTE should be minimized if DTE data rates exceed
19,200 bps. Also, low capacitance cables may be necessary for speeds greater than 19,200 bps or distances greater than 50 feet.
Figure 1 shows how Model 3910 modems are connected to certain TELCO jack types using the supplied cables.

LINE):
1. Insert the 8-position, 2-conductor modular plug into the jack labeled DIAL, Figure 1.
2. Insert the BT431A type modular plug into the dial network interface.
Power Supply Connection
The power supply is equipped with an 8-pin DIN connector for modem connection, and an IEC 320 power inlet.
NOTE
A line cord with an IEC 320 connector and the appropriate wall plug must be provided.
Use the following procedure to connect the standalone modem to an ac power outlet:
1. Make sure the modem’s power switch is in the OFF position.
2. Insert the power supply’s 8-pin DIN male connector into the modem’s rear panel power receptacle
(Figure 1).
3. Insert the outlet connector of the line cord into the IEC 320 power inlet of the power transformer.
4. Insert the line cord wall plug into the appropriate grounded ac outlet in accordance with requirements as stated in EN60950: ‘‘For pluggable equipment, the socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.”
