–

Two number-10 wall anchors with washers, for mounting the router on a hollow-wall.

•Wire crimper for chassis grounding.

•Wire for connecting the chassis to an earth ground:

–

AWG 1 4 (2 mm2) or larger wire for NEC-compliant chassis grounding.

–

AWG 1 8 (1 mm2) or larger wire for EN/IEC 60950–compliant chassis grounding.

•Ring terminal with an inner diameter of 1/4 in. (5 to 7mm), for NEC-compliant chassis grounding.

•Ethernet cables for connecting to the Fast Ethernet (FE) WAN and LAN ports.

Obtain a broadband or Ethernet connection from your service provider.

Identify the Ethernet devices that you will connect to the router: hub, servers, and workstations or PCs.

Ensure that each device has a network interface card (NIC) for connecting to Ethernet ports.

•If you plan to configure the software using CiscoIOS commands through the console port, provide

an ASCII terminal or a PC that is running terminal emulation software to connect to the console port.

•If you plan to connect a modem, provide the modem and modem cable.

•If you plan to use the Data BRI port, provide an NT1 device and an ISDN S/T cable.

•If you plan to use the cable-lock feature, provide a Kensington or equivalent locking cable.
