Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco ADE 2130 and 2140 Series Appliance

Ethernet and Console Port Considerations

•Installation progress—Make a copy of the appliance Installation Checklist, and insert it into the Site Log. Make entries as you complete each task.

•Upgrade, removal, and maintenance procedures—Use the Site Log as a record of ongoing appliance maintenance and expansion history. Each time a task is performed on the appliance, update the Site Log to reflect the following information:

–Installation of new adapter cards

–Removal or replacement of adapter cards and other upgrades

–Configuration changes

–Maintenance schedules and requirements

–Maintenance procedures performed

–Intermittent problems

–Comments and notes

Ethernet and Console Port Considerations

There are two network interface connectors (NIC 1 and NIC 2) on the rear panel of the

Cisco ADE 2130 and 2140 Series appliance. Both ports use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable. Cisco recommends at least a Category 5, 5E, or 6 UTP cable. The maximum segment distance is 328 feet (100 meters). The UTP cables look like the cables used for ordinary telephones; however, UTP cables meet certain electrical standards that telephone cables do not. (See the “Ethernet Port (NIC 1 and NIC 2)” section on page 1-11for UTP cabling specifications.)

Note Two additional NIC ports (3 and 4) can be installed on the rear panel with a NIC personality (mezzanine) card.

The appliance includes an asynchronous serial console port, which provides access to the appliance locally (using a console terminal). The following sections describe important cabling information to consider before connecting a console terminal—either an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal-emulation software—to the console port. (See the “Serial (Console) Port” section on page 1-12for serial (console) cabling specifications.)

NIC 1 and NIC 2 (RJ-45) Ethernet Connections

The NIC 1 and NIC 2 connections support 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T standards. The transmission speed of the Ethernet ports is autosensing by default and is user configurable.

Figure 1-7 on page 1-12shows the pin orientation of the RJ-45 Ethernet port and the modular cable plug it accepts.

Serial (Console) Port Connections

The console port on the Cisco ADE 2130 and 2140 Series appliance includes an EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous serial (RJ-45) connector. This serial console connector (port) allows you the capability to access the appliance locally by connecting a terminal—either a PC running terminal-emulation software or an ASCII terminal—to the console port.
