Connector Ports
The front panel on the CPU switch module contains three ports with RJ-45
connectors (see Figure 1-11):
• Network Management Ethernet port (NME)—This Ethernet port connects the
CPU switch module to a 10/100BASE-T network management LAN.
• Console port (CON)—This asynchronous EIA/TIA-232 serial port connects
a terminal to the CPU switch module for local administrative access.
• Auxiliary port (AUX)—This asynchronous EIA/TIA-232 serial port connects
a modem to the CPU switch module for remote administrative access.
The RJ-45 connectors on the front panel of the CPU switch module have an extra
EMI shield and the signals going to them are filtered. Table 1-3 shows the pinouts
of the console and auxiliary ports.
CompactFlash Card Slot
A CompactFlash card slot (see Figure 1-11) can store the Cisco IOS image or a
system configuration file on a CompactFlash memory card. The system can also
boot from the software stored on the CompactFlash memory card.
