Cabling Specifications


This appendix provides the following cabling and pinout information for the Cisco AS5300 universal access server:

Console and Auxiliary Port Cables and Pinouts

Ethernet Port Pinouts

T1/PRI and E1/PRI Card Port Pinouts

T1/PRI and E1/PRI Card Cable Assemblies and Pinouts


Note   This appendix specifies pinouts only for the pins used. Pins not listed in the tables in this appendix are not connected.


Console and Auxiliary Port Cables and Pinouts

The access server arrives with a console and auxiliary cable kit, which contains the cable and adapters you need to connect a console (an ASCII terminal or PC running terminal emulation software) or modem to your access server. The console and auxiliary cable kit includes:

RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable. (See the next section, "Identifying a Rollover Cable," for more information.)

RJ-45-to-DB-9 female DTE adapter (labeled TERMINAL).

RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter (labeled TERMINAL).

RJ-45-to-DB-25 male DCE adapter (labeled MODEM).

For console connections, proceed to the section "Console Port Cables and Pinouts" later in this appendix; for modem connections, proceed to the section "Auxiliary Port Signals and Pinouts" later in this appendix.

Identifying a Rollover Cable

You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the two modular ends of the cable. Holding the cables side-by-side, with the tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should be the same color as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug. (See .) If your cable was purchased from Cisco Systems, pin 1 will be white on one connector, and pin 8 will be white on the other connector (a rollover cable reverses pins 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5).
