6 Cabling the Device
This chapter describes device cabling.
6.1 Connecting to WAN
This section describes how to cable the WAN port interfaces.
Note: The device supports WAN redundancy, whereby multiple WAN interfaces can
serve as backups for the primary or a backup WAN interface. For example, if the main
WAN interface is Copper GbE and it fails, the device switches over to the fiber-optic
WAN interface. If this WAN interface also fails, the device switches over to the 3G WAN
interface, and so on. For configuring WAN redundancy, refer to the CLI Reference Guide.
6.1.1 Copper Gigabit Ethernet
The device provides a copper Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) port interface for connecting to the
WAN.
