The cabling details for the Cisco 1601-R are as follows:

Console

The console cable is a rolled RJ-45 , the CAB-1600-CON=.

Ethernet

On the 1601-R router, there is one functional port for either the 10Base-T (RJ-45) or AUI (DB-15). The cable details are the CAB-ETH-S-RJ45= Yellow Cable for Ethernet, Straight-through, RJ-45, 6 ft

Synchronous/Asynchronous Serial

On the 1601-R router, there is one DB-60 Synchronous/Asynchronous serial port.

Asynchronous

Asynchronous serial cables are used to support the following WAN protocols:

  • Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)

  • Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP)

Asynchronous serial interfaces supported on the Cisco 1601-R and WIC-1T card require the following type of cabling:

  • EIA/TIA-232

Individual cable options are:

  • CAB-232MT: EIA/TIA-232 male DTE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-232FC: EIA/TIA-232 female DCE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

Synchronous

Synchronous serial cables are used to support the following WAN services and protocols:

  • Frame Relay

  • X.25

  • Switched Multimegabit Data Service (SMDS)

  • Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)

  • High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC)

  • Link Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB)

  • IBM Systems Network Architecture (SNA)

Synchronous serial interfaces supported on the Cisco 1601 R and WIC-1T card require the following types of cabling:

  • EIA/TIA-232

  • V.35

  • X.21

  • EIA/TIA-449

  • EIA-530

Individual cable options consist of the following:

  • CAB-232MT: EIA/TIA-232 male DTE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-232FC: EIA/TIA-232 female DCE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-449MT: EIA/TIA-449 male DTE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-449FC: EIA/TIA-449 female DCE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-530MT: EIA-530 male DTE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-V35MT: V.35 male DTE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-V35FC: V.35 female DCE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-X21MT: X.21 male DTE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

  • CAB-X21FC: X.21 female DCE interface, 10 ft (3 m)

WAN Interface Cards

WAN interface cards supported on the Cisco 1601-R consist of the following:

  • WIC-1T: 1-port serial, async and sync (T1/E1)

  • WIC-1DSU-56K4: 1 serial with integrated 56/64 Kbps 4-wire DSU/CSU

  • WIC-1DSU-T1: 1 serial with integrated T1/Fractional T1 DSU/CSU

  • WIC-1B-S/T: 1 ISDN BRI S/T

  • WIC-1B-U: 1 ISDN BRI U with integrated NT-1

Front Panel LEDs

1601r-front.gif

The table below shows the front panel LED functions for the Cisco 1601 and Cisco 1602 routers.

LED Color Description
SYSTEM PWR Green The router is on, and DC power is being supplied.
SYSTEM OK Green The router has successfully booted. Blinks during the boot cycle.
LAN ACT Green Data is being sent to or received from the local Ethernet LAN.
LAN COL Yellow Flashing indicates packet collisions on the local Ethernet LAN.
SER 0 CD Green
  • The Cisco 1601 has an active connection on the serial port.
  • The Cisco 1602 has an active connection on the DSU/CSU port.
SER 0 ACT Green
  • The Cisco 1601 serial port is sending or receiving data.
  • The Cisco 1602 DSU/CSU port is sending or receiving data.
WIC CD/B1 Green
  • The serial WAN interface card has an active connection on the serial port.
  • ~The ISDN WAN interface card has an ISDN connection on B-channel 1.
WIC ACT/B2 Green
  • The WAN interface card serial port is sending or receiving data.
  • The WAN interface card ISDN port has a connection on B-channel 2.

Rear Panel LEDs

The table below explains the rear panel LED functions.

LED Color Description
All Models
LNK (next to ETHERNETØ 10BASET) Green Indicates 10BaseT link integrity. This LED is not on when connected to an Ethernet network through the AUI port. The Cisco 1605 has two LNK LEDs, one for each Ethernet 10BaseT port.
