strap, and connect the other end of the cable to the AC outlet that provides power supply.

3Check that the POWER LED on the front panel of the Router is ON, which means the power cord connection is correct.

Connecting the Console Each 6000 Router provides an RS232-compliant asynchronous serial console port Terminal (CON), through which the user can configure the Router.

Console cable

Console cable is an 8-core shielded cable. At one end of the cable is a crimped RJ45 connector that plugs into the console port of the Router. At the other end of the cable is a DB9 (female) connector and a DB25 (female) connector.

Connect console cable

Before you can configure the Router at the console terminal, connect the console cable using the following steps:

1Select a console terminal. Console terminal can be a standard ASCII terminal possessing an RS232 serial port, or a regular PC, but the latter is often used.

2Connect the cable. Power off the Router and console terminal, and connect the RS232 serial port to the console port on the RPU via a console cable.

3Power on the Router after verifying the installation. If the Router is working normally, the system will display the router boot information on the console terminal.

Connecting Router to 6000 Routers provide the fixed 10/100BASE-TX interface. 10/100BASE-TX LAN Ethernet interface uses the category 5 twisted-pair for connection, as shown in

the following figure.

Ethernet cables fit into two categories, straight-through cables and crossover cables.
