Connecting the Router The Router 5000 Family routers provide a fixed 100BASE-TX fast Ethernet port

to the Ethernet	that uses category-5 twisted pair cable.
	Note the following before you connect:
	■ The fixed Ethernet cables are supplied with the router.
	■ Use shielded cables to ensure electromagnetic compatibility.
	■ Identify the mark on the module so you can plug the cable in correctly.
	■ When connecting the Ethernet cable to a LAN Switch, plug the cable into the
	10/100BASE-T interface marked with MDIX.

To connect the Ethernet cable:

1Turn off power to the router.

2Select the Ethernet cable.

While connecting the router with a PC or a router, use the crossover network cable.

When connecting the router to a hub or a LAN switch, use the straight-through network cable.

3Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the appropriate Ethernet port on the router.

4Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of the network device.

5Verify the connection by checking that the 100M ETH LED on the top of the router is on.
