These cables are optional. Please order them together with the FIC-SAE card. By
default, they are not provided.

CAUTION: Do not plug or unplug interface cables into or from the FIC-SAE card to
prevent the device or ports from being impaired.
Before connecting an FIC-SAE card, identify the type of the equipment to be
connected (that is, the synchronous/asynchronous mode, DTE/DCE mode, and so
on), signaling criterion required by the access equipment, baud rate, and line
clock.
Step 1: Identify type of the interface to be connected and then choose the correct
synchronous/asynchronous serial interface cable.
Step 2: Plug the DB-28 connector of the cable to the corresponding DB-28 port on
the FIC-SAE card.
Step 3: Connect the other end of the cable as follows:
■ If the WAN is a DDN line, connect the cable to the port on the CSU/DSU.
■ If the WAN is a dialup line, connect the cable to the serial port of an analog
modem.
Step 4: Power on the router, and check behavior of the LINK LED on the FIC-SAE
panel. It is OFF when fault occurs on the line and signal is not synchronized. Check
the line status.

Introduction Functions
FIC-8ASE/FIC-16ASE, 8-/16-port enhanced asynchronous serial interface card,
transmits, receives, and processes data traffic on asynchronous serial interfaces.
Each asynchronous serial interface can operate at a speed as fast as 115.2 kbps,
supporting terminal access service and asynchronous leased line. In addition, these
asynchronous serial interfaces can serve as the dialup access servers for the small
