Cabling for Cisco Interface Cards
The cables required to connect the interface card to the network differ according to interface and
connector type. See Table 2 for more information.
Note Cabling for 1- or 2-slot network modules is determined by the installed interface cards.
Note For network-end connectors and pinout specifications of the cables connecting the voice cards, refer to
the Cisco Modular Access Router Specifications. Look under the type of interface card.
