Typical 5800 Installation Connections
Installation of the 5800 Business Class Router is quick and straightforward. The router should be placed in a well-
ventilated location, not stacked with other devices or placed on carpeting. Powering the router through an
appropriate surge protection device is recommended.
Basic cabling for connecting one computer to the router is included with each product (see 5800 Package Contents,
below). The DSL jack connects directly to the WAN port of the 5800 router, while the built-in Ethernet hub
connects directly to an Ethernet-equipped computer or to another network hub or switch. (See Figure 2.)
Figure 2: The typical Efficient Networks 5800 Business Class Router installation is easy;
all cables needed for a basic configuration are included with the router.
5800 Front Panel Indicators
Six front panel indicators provide continuous status information for the DSL service and for the router itself. The
indicators provide the customer with a convenient way to determine that the router and service are operating
properly. As shown in the table below, the indicators can be off, yellow, or green, with each color giving different
information.
