Table 2 lists the pinouts for the asynchronous serial console port, the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable, and
the RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter (labeled TERMINAL).
You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the modular plugs at the two ends of the cable. When
you hold the plugs 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 Figure 2.) If you purchased your cable from Cisco Systems, pin 1 is white on one connector, and
pin 8 is white on the other (a rollover cable connects pins 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5).

Note To ensure agency compliance with FCC Class B electromagnetic emissions requirements (EMI), make
sure that you use the shielded RJ-45 Token Ring cable when connecting your router to the Token Ring
network.
Token Ring can operate at two different ring speeds: 4 and 16 Mbps. All devices on the ring must use
the same operating speed.
Only one Token Ring port can be used at a time. The module will automatically detect which port, STP
or UTP, is in use. Use the provided Token Ring cable to connect the router to a switch.
Warning Network hazardous voltages are present in the BRI, fractional T1/T1, and switched 56 cables. If you
detach the cable, detach the end away from the router first to avoid possible electric shock. Network
hazardous voltages also are present on the system card in the area of the BRI port (RJ-45 connector),
fractional T1/T1 port (RJ-48C connector), and switched port (RJ-11 or RJ-48S connector), regardless
of when power is turned OFF. Statement 59
Warning The ISDN connection is regarded as a source of voltage that should be inaccessible to user contact.
Do not attempt to tamper with or open any public telephone operator (PTO)-provided equipment or
connection hardware. Any hardwired connection (other than by a nonremovable,
connect-one-time-only plug) must be made only by PTO staff or suitably trained engineers. Statement
23
Use a BRI cable (not included) to connect BRI ports on WAN interface cards (WICs) or on high speed
WICs (HWICs) directly to an ISDN. Table 9 lists the specifications for ISDN BRI cables.
Caution To prevent damage to the system, make certain you connect the BRI cable to the BRI connector only and
not to any other RJ-45 connector.

CT1/PRI Pinouts
Two standard T1 serial cables are available for the CT1/PRI module: null modem and straight-through.
A straight-through cable connects the router to an external CSU. Null modem cables are used for
back-to-back operation and testing.
The T1 interface cable has two 15-pin DB connectors at each end to connect the CT1/PRI module with
the external T1 CSU. Figure 6 shows the T1 interface cable, connectors, and pinouts. Table 12 lists the
pinouts for the null modem T1 cable, and Table 13 lists the pinouts for the straight-through T1 cable.
Warning Network hazardous voltages are present in the BRI, fractional T1/T1, and switched 56 cables. If you
detach the cable, detach the end away from the router first to avoid possible electric shock. Network
hazardous voltages also are present on the system card in the area of the BRI port (RJ-45 connector),

CE1/PRI Interface
This section contains the following topics:
• CE1/PRI Cables
• CE1/PRI Pinouts
CE1/PRI Cables
Cisco Systems makes four cables for the CE1/PRI modules. All four have DB-15 connectors on the
CE1/PRI end and either BNC, DB-15, twinaxial, or RJ-45 connectors on the network end. Figure 7
through Figure 10 show the CE1/PRI interface cables.

Note The serial WIC uses a universal high-density, 60-pin receptacle. Each universal port requires a serial port
adapter cable that determines the port’s electrical interface type and mode: DTE or DCE. Although all
port adapter cables use a universal plug at the serial module end, the network end of each cable type uses
the physical connectors commonly used for the interface. (For example, the network end of the
EIA/TIA-232 port adapter cable is a DB-25 connector, the most widely used EIA/TIA-232 connector.)
After you install the serial WIC, use the appropriate serial cable to connect the WIC DB-60 serial port
to one of the following types of equipment:
• An asynchronous modem, if connecting to an analog telephone line
• A synchronous modem, data service unit/channel service unit (DSU/CSU), or other data
circuit-terminating equipment (DCE), if connecting to a digital WAN line
EIA/TIA-232 Interface
This section contains the following topics:
• EIA/TIA-232 Connections
• EIA/TIA-232 Serial Cable Assembly
EIA/TIA-232 Connections
EIA/TIA-232 supports unbalanced circuits at signal speeds up to 64 kbps. The network end of the
adapter cable is a standard 25-pin D-shell connector known as a DB-25. (See Figure 13.) The router
console and auxiliary ports also use EIA/TIA-232 connections; however, the serial module ports support
synchronous connections, and the console and auxiliary ports support asynchronous connections.

EIA/TIA-449 Interface
This section contains the following topics:
• EIA/TIA-449 Connections
• EIA/TIA-449 Serial Cable Assembly
EIA/TIA-449 Connections
EIA/TIA-449, which supports balanced (EIA/TIA-422) and unbalanced (EIA/TIA-423) transmissions,
is a faster (up to 2 Mbps) version of EIA/TIA-232 that provides more functions and supports
transmissions over greater distances.
The EIA/TIA-449 standard was intended to replace the EIA/TIA-232 standard, but it was not widely
adopted primarily because of the large installed base of DB-25 hardware and because of the larger size
of the 37-pin EIA/TIA-449 connectors, which limited the number of connections possible (fewer than
possible with the smaller, 25-pin EIA/TIA-232 connector).
The network end of the EIA/TIA-449 adapter cable provides a standard 37-pin D-shell connector.
(See Figure 15.) EIA/TIA-449 cables are available as either DTE (DB-37 plug) or DCE (DB-37
receptacle).

• V.35 Connections
• V.35 Serial Cable Assembly
V.35 Connections
The V.35 interface is recommended for speeds up to 48 kbps, although in practice it is used successfully
at 4 Mbps.
The network end of the V.35 adapter cable provides a standard 34-pin Winchester-type connector. (See
Figure 17.) V.35 cables are available with a standard V.35 plug or receptacle in either DTE or DCE mode.

X.21 Interface
This section contains the following topics:
• X.21 Connections
• X.21 Serial Cable Assembly
X.21 Connections
The X.21 interface uses a 15-pin connection for balanced circuits and is commonly used in the United
Kingdom to connect public data networks. X.21 relocates some of the logic functions to the DTE and
DCE interfaces and, as a result, requires fewer circuits and a smaller connector than EIA/TIA-232.
The network end of the X.21 adapter cable is a standard DB-15 connector. (See Figure 19.) X.21 cables
are available as either DTE (DB-15 plug) or DCE (DB-15 receptacle).

EIA-530 Interface
This section contains the following topics:
• EIA-530 Connections
• EIA-530 Serial Cable Assembly
EIA-530 Connections
EIA-530, which supports balanced transmission, provides the increased functionality, speed, and
distance of EIA/TIA-449 on the smaller DB-25 connector used for EIA/TIA-232, instead of the 37-pin
connectors used for EIA/TIA-449. Like EIA/TIA-449, EIA-530 refers to the electrical specifications of
EIA/TIA-422 and EIA/TIA-423. Although the specification recommends a maximum speed of 2 Mbps,
EIA-530 is used successfully at 4 Mbps or faster speeds over short distances.
The EIA-530 adapter cable is available in DTE mode only. The network end of the EIA-530 adapter
cable is a standard DB-25 plug commonly used for EIA/TIA-232 connections. Figure 21 shows the
DB-25 connector at the network end of the adapter cable.
