OL-24878-01

  Feature Description

Feature Description

The Cisco uBR10-MC5X20S, U and H cable interface line cards use 75–ohm precision video coax 
cables and 75–ohm MCX connectors to connect to the CMTS. 

This document describes how to install and remove cables and the second generation universal cable 
holder (UCH2).

Figure 1

 shows the cards in a Cisco uBR10012 router.

Note

Quad-shield coaxial cable bundles for the Cisco uBR10-MC5X20S/U/H cable interface line card can be 
purchased from Cisco, with the Universal Cable Holders (UCH) already connected to the coaxial cable 
bundles. Alternatively, custom-length quad-shield coaxial cable bundles can be purchased from third 
party vendors, with the UCH either connected to the cable bundles or provided as separate components.

The cable bundle for RF card to HFC plant has five 5-bundle MCX connectors attached to three UCH2 
units on one end, and F connectors attached to the other end. The cable bundle is 9.84 feet (3 m) long 
and is referred to by the Cisco part number CAB-RFSW520QTIMF2.

Note

In European markets only, you must use the quad-shielded cable kit with the Cisco uBR10-MC5X20H.
