Connecting a Modem to the Auxiliary Port
To connect a modem to the auxiliary port on the router:
Step 1
Connect a modem to the auxiliary port using the black RJ-45-to-RJ-45 auxiliary cable and the
RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter (labeled MODEM) or the black RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter cable. (See
Figure 3-28
.)

Step 2
Make sure that your modem and the auxiliary port on the router are configured for the same transmission
speed (38400 baud is typical) and hardware flow control with Data Carrier Detect (DCD) and Data
Terminal Ready (DTR) operations.
Note
For information on auxiliary port pinouts, refer to the online document Cisco Modular Access Router
Cabling Specifications on the Documentation CD-ROM that accompanied your router package and
on Cisco.com.
