Connect to the Console

Connection to the bridge/router operator’s console is made through the DB25 connector labeled CONSOLE on the back of the bridge/router.

Connect the console port of the Router to a computer running an asynchronous communication package or a standard asynchronous terminal. The bridge/router supports autobaud rates at 1200, 2400, 9600, 19,200, 38,400 or 57,600 bps. Both the bridge/router and the bridged network are configured through the use of “hotkey” Menus.

Make the Link Connection(s)

By default the links are configured as permanent DTE interfaces. The clocking for each link will be provided by the DCE device connected to each link.

The V.35 link modules require interface converters that convert from a DB25 connector to a male 34-pin (V.35) connector used for the V.35 interface. Be sure to secure the cable connector(s) to the bridge/router and the communications equipment with the connector screws to prevent accidental disconnection.

The CSU/DSU module uses a RJ-48S connector to interface with the digital data service.

G.703 modules use a standard BNC connector with a 75 ohm cable.

The ISDN-ST interface module of the ISDN Router provides a RJ-45 connector to connect to the RJ-45 connector of the NT1 provided with your ISDN service.

The ISDN-U interface module of the ISDN Router provides an integrated NT1 with a RJ- 45 connector to connect directly with your ISDN service.

Pinouts for the WAN connectors are listed in Appendix D of this manual.
