4Connecting Cables

This section describes how to do the cabling in the Cisco RFGW-10 UEQAM.

Power and Ground Connections

Each DC PEM has an earth ground connection and two DC power input connections (Input 1 and Input 2). Both external DC inputs must be connected as shown in Figure 13. Input 1 and Input 2 are individual power inputs. Both power inputs on the PEM must be wired to external power for the Cisco RFGW-10 to operate properly. If both inputs are not connected to external power, the Cisco RFGW-10 will not power on.

Caution The exposed portions of the power lugs must be covered with heat shrink tubing prior to installation.

Connect the Console and Management Ports

Each Supervisor card has an Ethernet console and a 10/100 management port for connection to a console.

Note To meet FCC requirements, Ferrite clamps are recommended for both the console and the auxiliary cables for the supervisor cards. The ferrites should be placed as close as possible to the RJ-45 connectors on the supervisor card. These ferrites are included in the accessory kit.

Console Port

The console port provides local administrative access to the router and its command-line interface (CLI).
