Interface Naming
The following table shows the interface naming of the Cisco N540-6Z14S-SYS-D router:
Table 1: Port Numbering
10G Dual rate SFP+ ports1G SFP ports (Including
CSFP)
1G SFP ports1G Copper ports
0/20 to 0/250/8 to 0/19*0/4 to 0/70/0 to 0/3
* ports 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, and 19 are enabled only with CSFP optical modules.
The interface-path-id is rack / slot / module / port. The slashes between values are required as part of the
notation.
• GigE — 0/0/0/0 to 0/0/0/19 (ports 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, and 19 are enabled only with CSFP optics)
• TenGigE — 0/0/0/20- 0/0/0/25
Dual-Rate functionality is supported only with the supported SFP.

External Alarm Inputs
The router supports four dry contact alarm inputs through an RJ-45 jack at the front panel.
• Normally Open—indicates that no current flows through the alarm circuit and the alarm is generated
when the current is flowing.
Each alarm input can be provisioned as critical, major, or minor.
