Note The illustrations in this chapter show a wireless router with antennas attached. Nonwireless routers do not have antennas or antenna connectors on the back panel. However, the procedures for connecting devices to the router are the same for both wireless and nonwireless routers.
Note Depending on the features available for your router, some content in this chapter may not apply to your router.
Preparing to Connect the Router
Before you connect the router to the devices, install the router according to the instructions in Chapter 2 "Installing the Router."
Preventing Damage to the Router
To prevent damage to your router, follow these guidelines when connecting devices to your router:
•Turn off power to the devices and to the router until all connections are completed.
Caution Do not turn on the devices until after you have completed all connections to the router.
•Connect the color-coded cables supplied by Cisco to the color-coded ports on the back panel.
•If you must supply your own cable, see "Technical Specifications," for cabling specifications. If this appendix does not provide specifications for a particular cable, we strongly recommend ordering the cable from Cisco.
Connecting a PC, Server, or Workstation
To connect a PC (or other Ethernet devices) to an Ethernet switch port, follow these steps:
Step 1 Connect one end of the yellow Ethernet cable to an Ethernet switch port on the router. Figure 3-1 shows a Cisco 888W router connected to a PC.

Connecting a Data BRI Port
You can connect the Data BRI port to the ISDN service provider as a backup link to the WAN port in case the primary xDSL (general term referring to various forms of DSL, including global industry standard symmetrical high-speed DSL [G.SHDSL]) WAN service fails. The Data BRI connection is not available on the third-generation (3G) models.
The cabling requirements for the ISDN S/T connection are as follows:
•You must provide two unshielded Category 5 cables. The first cable connects the NT1 box to the splitter, and the second cable connects the splitter to the wall jack.
•There are RJ-45 connectors at both ends of the default orange ISDN S/T cable. However, an RJ-45-to-RJ-11 ISDN S/T cable is available upon request if the wall jack at the site requires an RJ-11 connector. Contact your router reseller for the appropriate cable.
Caution Both LAN and WAN ports use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables to these connectors. To avoid damage to the router, do not connect telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits (such as ISDN or DSL circuits) to safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits (such as LAN circuits).
Although the following procedure shows a Cisco 888W data router, this procedure applies to all Cisco 880 series router with a Data BRI port.
To connect the Data BRI port to the ISDN service provider, follow these steps:
Step 1 Connect one end of the orange ISDN S/T cable to the Data BRI port on the router. Figure 3-19 shows a Data BRI connection.

Step 2 Connect the other end of the RJ-11 cable to a telephone wall outlet.
Note If you have specified the use of a private line automatic ringdown (PLAR) off-premises extension (OPX) connection mode for an FXO voice port (with loop resistance less than 8000 Ohm), you must ensure that the soft-offhook option is enabled on the port.
This option allows a stepped offhook resistance during seizure, which avoids overloading the circuit during offhook in the event that ringing voltage is present on the circuit at the same time as the trunk seizure. The stepped offhook resistance is initially set to 800 Ohms, then adjusts to 50 Ohms when ringing voltage is not present.
To enable the soft-offhook command on the port, and to access the connection command with plar opx syntax, see the Cisco Command Lookup Tool.

Installing an SFP Module
To connect and secure the SFP module, follow these steps:
Step 1 Slide the SFP into the SFP port connector until it locks into position (see Figure 3-31).
Tip If the SFP uses a bale-clasp latch (see Figure 3-31), the handle should be on top of the SFP module.
Figure 3-31 Installing an SFP Module
Caution Caution Do not remove the optical port plugs from the SFP until you are ready to connect cabling.
Step 2 Connect the network cable to the SFP module.
Removing an SFP Module
Follow these steps to remove the SFP module from a Cisco 892F series router:
Step 1 Disconnect all cables from the SFP.
|
Warning Because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no fiber cable is connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures. Statement 70
|
Caution The latching mechanism used on many SFPs locks the SFP into place when cables are connected. Do not pull on the cabling in an attempt to remove the SFP.
Step 2 Disconnect the SFP latch. See Figure 3-32.
Note SFP modules use various latch designs to secure the module in the SFP port. Latch designs are not linked to SFP model or technology type. For information on the SFP technology type and model, see the label on the side of the SFP.

Tip Use a pen, screwdriver, or other small straight tool to gently release a bale-clasp handle if you cannot reach it with your fingers.
Step 3 Grasp the SFP on both sides and remove it from the router.
Online Insertion and Removal
Online insertion and removal (OIR) of the SFP module is supported on the Cisco 892F ISRs.
Note If an SFP module is inserted with auto-failover or SFP media-type already configured, the port is forced to the speed and duplex capability of the SFP. For a 100 base SFP, the speed is set to 100 and duplex can be configured to either half or full. For a 1000 base SFP, the speed is set to 1000 and duplex is set to full.
Verifying Connections
To verify that all devices are properly connected to the router, first turn on all the connected devices, then check the LEDs. To verify router operation, refer to Table 3-3.
For full LED description, see Table 1-4 and Table 1-2.
