Chapter 5 Cable Connection Procedures for Cisco 1900 Series Routers
Connecting to a Console Terminal or Modem
Connection Procedures and Precautions
Connect each WAN and LAN cable to the appropriate connector on the chassis or interface card.
• Position the cables carefully, so that they do not put strain on the connectors.
• Organize the cables in bundles so that cables do not intertwine.
• Inspect the cables to make sure that the routing and bend radiuses are satisfactory. Reposition the
cables, if necessary.
• Install cable ties in accordance with your site requirements.
For cable pinouts, refer to the online document Cisco Modular Access Router Cable Specifications.
Connecting to a Console Terminal or Modem
Your router has asynchronous serial, USB, console and auxiliary ports. These ports provide
administrative access to your router either locally (with a console terminal or PC) or remotely (with a
modem).
The following cables and adapters may be used for connecting your router to a console terminal, PC, or
modem:
• USB Console cable—USB 5-pin mini Type-B to USB Type-A. See “USB Serial Console” section
on page 3-2 for port details and “Specifications” section on page 1-14.
• Console cable— EIA RJ-45 to DB-9
• Modem adapter—DB-9 to DB-25
Note The first time a Windows based PC is connected to the router, a USB device driver must be installed.
See Installing the Cisco Microsoft Windows USB Device Driver, page 5-6.
