Connecting the Router to Your Local Network

Be sure to read the safety information in the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco 1600 and Cisco 1700 Routers document that came with your router.

Warning Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power source.

Warning This equipment needs to be grounded. Use a green and yellow 14 AWG ground wire to connect the host to earth ground during normal use.

Warning Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

Caution Do not place anything on top of the router that weighs more than 10 pounds (4.5 kg). Excessive weight on top of the router could damage the chassis.

Connecting the Router to Your Local Network

The router is connected to your local Ethernet network through the yellow 10/100 Ethernet port. You must provide the following items for this connection:

•A straight-through, RJ-45-to-RJ-45 Ethernet cable

•A 10/100-Mbps Ethernet hub or switch

Warning The ports labeled 10/100-Mbps Ethernet port and Console port are safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Because BRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage, avoid connecting the SELV circuits to the telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits. (To
