Phase 3: Prepare the Router Hardware

C. Attach Network Cables

Depending on the model of router and the physical connections in your network, you will use one or more of the following interface options:

AUI (page 1-12)

BNC (page 1-14)

Token Ring (page 1-16)

FDDI (page 1-17)

WAN (page 1-21)

Static discharge may damage equipment. Do not touch the router connector pins or the cable connector pins.

On routers providing an AUI interface and a BNC interface for the same LAN 802.3 port, you can use either interface at any time, but not both at the same time. For information on the operation of the green LEDs indicating AUI or BNC interface selection, refer to ‘‘AUI and BNC (green) LEDs’’ on page 2-10.
