Installation
histaHaton
The
installation
of the router
is greatly simplified
if
no
rack or wiring
closet mounting
is required
Following
are guidelines
for
this general installation
Choose
suitable location
that
does not block the chassis intake
and
exhaust vents
The
chassis can be stacked on
other equipment
providing that this
stacking meets or exceeds
the
ventilation and placement
recommendations
made
in
the
Preventive
Site
Configuration
section
in
Chapter
When
stacking
any
equipment consider
RFI and
future maintenance
requirements
Caution
Do
not place the chassis next
to
another chassis
or
other piece of
equipment if the
intake
or exhaust vents
on
the chassis
are
blocked because the exhaust of one chassis
will
be pulled
in by
the
intake of another
After
you choose
an adequate
location the installation
is simply
matter of positioning the
chassis
and
connecting the
external
network and
console cables
to
the appropriate appliques and
connectors located
on
the chassis
rear
panel
After
you correctly position the chassis proceed
to the
section Making
External
Connections
to attach
external
interface
cables
to
the chassis rear
panel
Making
Externa
Connectons
The
following
sections discuss the basic cable requirements
for installing
the chassis After ensuring
that
these requirements are met
refer
to the
section Interface Connectors
for
the
cable descriptions
that apply to
your configuration
TermhiaD Connections
Following are
the two
types of terminal
connections available on
the
chassis
rear
panel
Console
Port
The
console
port is
used
to
connect the chassis
to the
terminal
you will
be
using The external
connection
for this cable
is
located on
the
rear
panel
of
the
chassis
in
the upper
left
corner with the
chassis rear facing you and
is
labeled
Console
This data
communication
equipment
DCE
port
uses
female
DB-25
connector
and
requires
standard
RS-232
cable with
at least
one
DB-25
male
connector
for
attachment
to
DTE
terminal device Before
connecting the
console
port
check
your
terminals
documentation
to
determine
the
baud
rate
of
the terminal
you will
be using The baud
rate
of the terminal
must match
the
default
baud
rate
9600 baud
data bits
no
parity
or
stop bits
of the chassis
If you have
not
verified the
baud
rate
of the terminal
check
its
documentation The
pinout for the console
port is
given in Appendix Cabling
Specifications
Auxiliary
Port
The
auxiliary port
is
an option
on
the
chassis
If
present it
is located beneath
the
console
port
This
port is
labeled Auxiliaiy
and
provides
an asynchronous
data terminal
equipment
DTE
connection
for local
or
remote
terminal
or
modem
The communication
requirements are
9600 baud
data
bits
no
parity
and
stop bits This port uses
male DB-25
connector
and
requires an
RS-232
cable
with
at least
one
DB-25
female
connector
The
pinout for
the auxiliary port
is
given in
Appendix
Cabling
Specifications
Attaching
DTE
device
to this port requires
null-modem
cable
