Routers
Table 42 on page 153 lists the specifications for the cables that connect to management ports and the wires
that connect to the alarm relay contacts.
NOTE: In routers where the Routing Engine (RE) and Control Board (CB) are integrated into a
single board, a CB-RE is known as Routing and Control Board (RCB). The RCB is a single FRU
that provides RE and CB functionality.
