Chapter 6 Cisco ASR 1002 Router Overview and Installation
Connecting a Terminal to the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 Console Port
Step 7 Connect the ground, positive, and negative leads to the power source.
Step 8 Turn the branch source breaker on.
Step 9 Place the DC Standby switch in the On (I) position. The power supply LEDs light when power is
supplied to the router.
You have completed the procedure for connecting a DC power supply in the Cisco ASR 1002 Router.
Connecting a Terminal to the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 Console Port
The Cisco ASR 1002 embedded router processor has an asynchronous serial (EIA/TIA-232) RJ-45
console port labeled CON on its front panel. You can connect this port to most types of video terminals
through use of the console cable kit that is included with your Cisco
ASR 1002 Router. The console
cable kit contains:
• One RJ-45 to RJ-45 crossover cable
• One RJ-45 to DB-25 (female) adapter
• One RJ-45 to DB-9 (female) adapter
A crossover cable reverses pin connections from one end to the other. In other words, it connects pin 1
(at one end) to pin 8 (at the other end), pin 2 to pin 7, pin
3 to pin 6, and so on. You can identify a
crossover cable by comparing the two modular ends of the cable. Hold the cable ends in your hand,
side-by-side, with the tabs at the back. Ensure that the wire connected to the outside (left) pin of the left
plug (pin 1) is the same color as the wire connected to the outside (right) pin of the right plug (pin 8).
Use the following procedure to connect a video terminal to the console port on a route processor.
Note Each Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route Processor 1 must have a console port connection (typically to a
terminal server) if you are running a redundant configuration in the chassis.
Step 1 Connect one end of the RJ-45 cables to the serial RJ-45 port (CON) on the Cisco embedded
ASR1000-RP1 (
Figure 6-26).
