Tools Required to Connect External Devices and Cables
To connect external devices and cables to the router, you need the following tools:
•
Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 connector attached (provided)
•
RJ-45 to DB-9 serial port adapter (provided)
•
Management host, such as a PC, with an Ethernet port (not provided)
Connect the ACX Series Router to a Network for Out-of-Band Management
1. Turn off the power to the management device.
2. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable (Figure 9 on page 12 shows the connector) into
the MGMT port on the front of the chassis. Figure 1 on page 4, Figure 2 on page 4,
and Figure 3 on page 5 show the port.
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the network device.
Connect the ACX Series Router to a Management Console or Auxiliary Device
1. Turn off the power to the console or auxiliary device.
2. Plug the RJ-45 end of the serial cable (Figure 9 on page 12 shows the connector) into
the CONSOLE/AUX port on the front panel. Figure 1 on page 4, Figure 2 on page 4,
and Figure 3 on page 5 show the port.
3. Plug the female DB-9 end into the device's serial port.
Connect Network Interface Cables to the ACX Series Router
1. Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the network ports. For cable
specifications, see the ACX1000 and ACX1100 Universal Access Routers Hardware Guide.
NOTE: Shielded cables are required for outside deployment.
2. Remove the rubber safety plug from the cable connector port.
