Figure 3.2-2 ZXDSL 931WII Connection Schematic Diagram (Phone sets are Installed before the Splitter)
Note:
If the first connection is not applicable, please adopt the second connection method. In the second method, install a MicroFilter
on the telephone cable (as illustrated in Figure 3.3-2, do not use a splitter to replace the MicroFilter).
Install the telephone directly before the splitter installation. Or it will lead to the ZXDSL 931WII and the central office
connection failure, causing Internet access failure, or results in slow connection speed. If a telephone set is needed to be added
before the splitter,, please add a MicroFilter before the telephone set. Do not connect several telephones before the splitter and
do not connect several telephones with MicroFilter.
If the MicroFilter is not a standard-configuration device, please separately purchase it from the operator.

ZXDSL 931WII User Manual
Connection Procedure
1 Power OFF the equipment before all other devices are connected.
2 Connect the network cables: connect the RJ-45 Ethernet cable connector with the Ethernet interface of the ZXDSL 931 W
Ⅱ. Connect other terminals to the Ethernet adapter of the user computers or ports of other network devices.
3 Connect the splitter.
The splitter has three interfaces, which are described as follows:
z LINE: It is connected with the user telephone cable (RJ-11 interface).
z MODEM (or VDSL): It is connected with the Line interface of the ZXDSL 931WII.
z PHONE (or TEL): It is connected to the phone sets.
z The installation process is as follows: Connect the Line interface of the ZXDSL 931WII to the splitter MODEM
interface by using the RJ-11 telephone cable. Connect the phone set lines to the splitter PHONE interface. Connect the
user telephone cable port to the splitter LINE interface.
4 Connect the power
Connect one power adapter terminal to the power interface of the ZXDSL 931WII, and the other terminal to the socket on the
wall. Then switch ON the ZXDSL 931WII equipment power.
Checking All Connection Cables
Check all connection cables according to the following steps:
1 Check the DSL cable connection
If the Link LED is ON normally, it indicates that the DSL line is correctly connected (Generally it takes one to two minutes to
perform the VDSL2 connection)
2 Check the computer connection
If both the computer Link LEDs are ON and the ZXDSL 931WII LAN LED is green, it indicates that the computer and the
ZXDSL 931WII equipment are correctly connected.
3 Check the telephone cable connection
If the received telephone signals are normal and free of noise, it indicates the telephone cable is correctly connected. Power
ON/OFF status of the ZXDSL 931WII will not affect the telephone.

Appendix A FAQs
No. Problem and Troubleshooting
1 All indicators are OFF when the ZXDSL 931WII equipment is powered ON.
First make sure that you have inserted the power adapter of the ZXDSL 931WII into a working power socket and that the ZXDSL
931WII has been powered ON (the switch button is pressed down). If the indicators are still OFF after confirmation of the above
items, may be the hardware is damaged. You may contact local operators for maintenance. Never dismantle the equipment by
yourself.
2 Will VDSL2 affect the telephone conversation quality? Will making phone calls cause a slow online rate?
VDSL2 separates voices from data through the frequency division multiplexing technology. Therefore, voices and data run in
different paths without mutual interference. Neither the access rate nor conversation quality will fall even if you are in a call and
online simultaneously.
3 How to properly install telephone extensions or other devices on the VDSL2 line?
It is recommended to connect the VDSL2 splitter to the telephone cable first and then connect the phone sets to the splitter
interfaces. Installing a telephone directly before the splitter will lead to connection failure between the ZXDSL 931WII and the
device at central office side, or an Internet access failure, or a slow connection speed. Connecting other electronic devices between
the user end and splitter may affect the VDSL2 communications (since VDSL2 has a higher requirement for the line quality) and
furthermore affect the normal operation of VDSL2. If the phone sets are required to be connected before the splitter, you should
serially connect the MicroFilter before the phone sets (Generally, to minimize interference, only one MicroFilter can be connected
before the splitter).
4 Sometimes, the VDSL2 users cannot access to the Internet normally
First check whether the ZXDSL 931WII is in the normal state (Check the indicators according to this user manual). If yes, the
computer or application network may be faulty. This is unrelated with VDSL2. If the VDSL2 MODEM is abnormal, check the
status of indicators one by one to remove the fault.
It is suggested to check the following items before seeking help from operators:
1. The VDSL2 telephone cable connectors are proper.
2. The VDSL2 is away from the power cable and large-power electronic devices.
3. No telephone extensions and fax machines are connected between the VDSL2 incoming line and splitter.
4. The splitter has been installed correctly.
5. The VDSL2 MODEM has good heat dissipation ratio.
5 What are reasons for VDSL2 synchronization failure (also referred as link down or link establishment failure)?
![](/img.php?id=1418123&img=bgd.png)
ZXDSL 931WII User Manual
No. Problem and Troubleshooting
If the VDSL2 suddenly fails to be synchronized (link down) during application, usually the Link indicator on the MODEM will not
be ON. It is suggested to check the following steps one by one:
1. First check the quality of incoming cables and incoming cable connectors.
2. Install the VDSL2 MODEM correctly based on the user guidance. Minimize the number of taps.
3. Check whether the telephone cables and VDSL2 are in good connection or whether the telephone cables are normal.
4. Try to disconnect the splitter and directly connect the VDSL2 MODEM to the incoming user cable end. Ensure the problem is
not due to improper installation or incoming user line quality. If the VDSL2 can be synchronized again, it means that installation of
the incoming user side is improper. Please reinstall it according to the user guide.
5. If the VDSL2 still fails to be synchronized when the VDSL2 MODEM is connected to the incoming user cable end, contact the
operators to check whether it is due to external line failure or MODEM failure.
6. If the splitter problem is determined, call the operator for maintenance or replacement.
7. If the problem is due to the end office equipment failure, call the operator to confirm it.
8. Too long connection cable between the splitter and VDSL2 MODEM may cause poor anti-interference performance and
synchronization difficulty. Therefore, the connection cable should not be too long.
