Assignment of the cables and sockets

Note:The FRITZ!Box is available in several different product variants, each of which is delivered with different components. For the exact contents of the package, see the information printed on the FRITZ!Box package.

1 DSL cable (RJ45/TAE)

You can have a technician install an S0 interface connected to the "FON S0" socket. The "FON S0" socket is terminated (two 100 Ohm resistors are switched on the "FON S0" socket in the FRITZ!Box).
