Italian term or phrase: collega alla presa il modem ADSL
This appears in the following sentence: Identificata la TGU del circuito e la sede Cliente, il system collega alla presa il modem ADSL; viene effettuata il test attraverso prova NEXT disponibile al seguente path sul portale Telecom

I can't quite figure out 'presa' in the context of this.

I'd be grateful for any thoughts.

Best wishes

modem jack


Explanation:
In the US we would also call it a modem jack. The example I've cited below is for a wireless modem jack, but if you google ADSL or DSL modem jack you'll find plenty of examples.
