Chapter 3 Installing the Cisco XR 12410 Router

Connecting PRP Route Processor Cables

Connecting PRP Route Processor Cables

This section describes how to connect cables to the console, auxiliary, and Ethernet ports on the PRP. The console and auxiliary ports are both asynchronous serial ports; any devices connected to these ports must be capable of asynchronous transmission. For example, most modems are asynchronous devices.

Figure 3-28shows an example of a data terminal and modem connections.
