HSSI Connector Signals
Table A-14 HSSI Interface Cable Signals
Null Modem Cable
The null modem cable (CAB-HNUL) can connect two routers directly back to back. The two routers
must be in the same location and can be two Cisco 7000s, two AGS+ routers, or one of each. A null
modem connection allows you to verify the operation of the HSSI or to link the routers directly in
order to build a larger node.
The null modem cable uses the same 50-pin connectors as the HSSI interface cable, but uses the
pinouts listed in Table A-15. For null modem cable connection and configuration instructions, refer
to the section “HSSI Connection Equipment” in the chapter “Preparing for Installation.”
