Installation

Connect to the Console

Connection to the router operator’s console is made through the RJ-45 connector labeled CONSOLE on the back of the router. A RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB9 (female) converter are provided for connection to a DB9 (male) connector.

Connect the console port of the router to a computer running an asynchronous communication package or a standard asynchronous terminal. The router supports autobaud rates at 1200, 2400, 9600 or 19,200 bps. The router is managed through the use of “hotkey” Menus.

Appendix C provides the pinout information for the console connector and the DB9 to RJ45 converter.

Make the LAN Connections

Connect the router to the LAN with the available LAN interface cable.

The router may be connected directly to a wiring hub or Ethernet switch by using the MDI LAN port and a standard 10BaseT cable.

The router may be connected directly to a computer network card by using the MDI-X LAN port and a standard 10BaseT cable.

Make the WAN Link Connection

The Universal WAN module may be selected to operate as a V.11, V.35, RS232, or EIA530 interface. The Universal WAN interface module uses a DB25 connector. Be sure to secure the cable connector to the router and the communications equipment with connector screws to prevent accidental disconnection.

WARNING: ensure that the connector cable used with the Universal interface module has the correct pinouts for the operational mode selected for the interface (V.11, V.35, RS232, or EIA530). Using the incorrect cable connector for the operational mode selected may cause permanent damage to the interface module. Please see Appendix D for pinout assignments.

Note: When the router is initially powered up, the Universal WAN will have the default type of “none”. Before the link can be used, it
