Chapter 5 NPE-G1 Overview
Connection Equipment and Specifications
The Cisco 7200 series routers ship with a roll-over cable. Connection to a terminal or a modem requires
an RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter, and possibly a DB-25-to-DB9 adapter. Refer to
Table 5-10 for the cable and
adapter configurations that can be used to connect terminals and modems to the Cisco 7200 series
routers.
The cable and auxiliary ports are configured as asynchronous serial ports. Figure 5-13 shows the RJ-45
console and auxiliary port connections.
