This manual explains how to install, commission, and service the Hughes HN7700S as a Terrestrial Broadband Router (HN router). The manual also includes installation information for the DSL and T-1 transport methods used with the HN router. This chapter discusses the following topics:
•Scope and audience on page 1
•HN router overview on page 1
•Router specifications on page 2
•Commissioning on page 3
•Installation and commissioning steps on page 4
The HN7700S has dual functions. This manual covers the HN7700S’ function as a router. It is also used as a VSAT terminal.
This manual is intended for use by the following audiences:
•Professional installers
•Installer trainers, who prepare separate instructions for the installers
•Call center operators, who respond to customers’ calls
•Call center trainers, who train call center operators
This manual is intended for use in the United States and Canada. Certain information may vary depending on the customer’s location. This manual identifies such differences where applicable.
In this guide, the term HN router refers to the HN7700S acting as a router. Transport devices refer to the Siemens 4100/4101 SpeedStream Modem or the ADTRAN Total Access 660R T-1 line.
The HN router, as shown in Figure 1 on page 2, is a standalone unit that provides an integrated broadband LAN solution to platforms running IP over Ethernet. The HN router provides two 10/100 LAN ports with one being used for local LAN connectivity and one being used for WAN connectivity. The Ethernet LAN port can be connected via a straight-through or

Commissioning is the process of registering an HN router for service. During the commissioning process you may use auto selection or manual entry of parameters.
•Auto Selection - Allows you to choose the Network Access Provider (NAP) from a predetermined list of providers. Many of the commissioning parameters are automatically configured for the provider chosen.
•Manual Entry - This mode requires you to enter all parameters manually.
Installation and commissioning of the HN router requires configuring/commissioning tasks for the transport device. This version of the Installation Guide provides information on the following:
•ADTRAN Total Access 600R as described in Appendix E –
ADTRAN Total Access 600R, on page 99.

Chapter 3 • Assembling and connecting the HN router hardware |
1037753-0001 Revision A |
Select a location for the router that will accommodate all required cable connections, including the power source. Place the router in the desired location.
CAUTION
•Do not block any ventilation openings. Do not place the router near heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, ovens, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
•Leave 6 inches of space around the top and sides of the router to ensure ventilation and prevent overheating.
Begin installation of the router by connecting the correct power supply. Use the power supply shipped with the router. Refer to Table 2 and Figures 4 and 5 to ensure you have the correct power supply type (AC/DC or DC/DC) for the unit.
CAUTION
•Always use the power supply provided with the system. The HN router’s performance may suffer if the wrong power supply is used.
•If the HN router is installed outside the United States or Canada, observe the power standards and requirements of the country where it is installed.

Connecting an AC/DC power Figure 4 shows the AC/DC power supply that is used with the HN supply router.
Figure 4: AC/DC power supply
CAUTION
The following apply if you use an AC/DC power supply:
•The input must be 110/240-VAC.
•A surge protector is recommended, whether you use an in-line power supply or wall unit.
In-line units The following instructions apply to AC/DC power supply with part number 1500089-0001. Refer to Figures 4 and 5. Connect the power supply as follows:
1.Connect the AC power cord to the power supply.
2.Connect the DC power cord to the DC IN port on the router, as shown in Figure 5 on page 13.
3.For an AC/DC power supply, make sure a suitable surge protector is available for the router.
Note: Protect the router with a suitable surge protector. Power surges are a common cause of failure for electronic devices.
Do not connect the AC power cord to the surge protector at this time. Wait until you are ready to observe the router’s LEDs upon power-up.
