Chapter 3 Installing the Cisco ASR 901 10G Router

Connecting Cables

Note The RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter (Cisco part number 29-0810-01) can be purchased from Cisco Systems.

Step 2 Configure the terminal or terminal emulation software for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 2 stop bits.

Note Hardware flow control is not possible on the console port.

Connecting Gigabit Ethernet Interface Cables

The RJ-45 port supports standard straight-through and crossover Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables. Cisco Systems does not supply Category 5 UTP cables; these cables are available commercially.

Complete the following steps to connect the cable to the router Gigabit Ethernet port:

Step 1 Ensure the router is powered off.

Step 2 Connect one end of the cable to the GE port on the router.

Step 3 Connect the other end to the BTS patch or demarcation panel at your site.

For more information about Gigabit Ethernet connectors including pinouts, see “Gigabit Ethernet Connector Pinouts” section on page B-1

Connecting T1 and E1 Interface Cables

Complete the following steps to connect the cable to a router T1/E1 port:

Note You must close the relays on the card using the standalone subcommand. For more information, see the Cisco ASR 901 Series Aggregation Services Router Software Configuration Guide.
