Connecting the Console and Auxiliary Port Cables
The Cisco ASR 1004 Router has a DCE-mode console port for connecting a console terminal and an auxiliary
port for additional connections to your chassis. The auxiliary port can also be used for diagnostics. The
following shows the CON and AUX ports on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series route processor.

The Cisco ASR 1004 Router uses RJ-45 ports for both the auxiliary port and the console port. Both the console
and the auxiliary ports are asynchronous serial ports; any devices connected to these ports must be capable
of asynchronous transmission.
A connection will not be established when setting up an out-of-band connection or modem connection in
the auxiliary port and the console port.
Note
For console and auxiliary port pinouts for the RJ-45 connector, see
Cisco ASR 1004 Router Specifications
. Both ports are configured as asynchronous serial ports.
SUMMARY STEPS
1.
Before connecting a terminal to the console port, configure the terminal to match the chassis console port
as follows: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bits (9600 8N1).
2.
After you establish normal router operation, you can disconnect the terminal.
