Connecting a MIM-8ASE/MIM-16ASE/FIC-8ASE/FIC-16ASE interface module
To avoid damage to the device and the ports, do not plug or unplug the MIM-8ASE/MIM-
module interface cable when the router is powered on.
To avoid damages to the interface module or the chassis, make sure
you insert the cable into the
right interface.
Choose the cable connection type according to the remote device type:
• If the remote device is a telecommunications device with an RJ45 interface, connect it with the
RJ45 interface of the MIM-8ASE/MIM-16ASE/FIC-8ASE/FIC-16ASE interface module by a
straight-through cable. The sequence is shown in the following figure:
Figure 171 Connecting a telecommunications device
• If the remote device is a bank dumb terminal device, connect the RJ45 connector (male) on one
end of the dumb terminal cable to the RJ45 interface on the
MIM-8ASE/MIM-16ASE/FIC-8ASE/FIC-16ASE interface module. Connect the RJ45 connector
(female) on the other end of the dumb terminal cable to the RJ45 interface on one end of the
dumb terminal adapter by a straight-through cable. The other end of the dumb terminal adapter
is a D25 interface and can be connected to the bank dumb terminal device. The sequence is
shown in the following figure:
