Preventing Router Damage
Follow these guidelines when connecting devices to your router:
• Connect the color-coded cables supplied by Cisco Systems to the color-coded
ports on the back panel.
• If you must supply your own cable, see Appendix A for cabling
specifications. If this appendix does not provide specifications for a particular
cable, we strongly recommend ordering the cable from Cisco Systems.

To install the router, you need to perform these tasks in the following order:
• Connect the Ethernet devices to the router.
• Connect the router to a broadband modem or Ethernet switch.
• Connect a terminal or PC to the router (for software configuration using the
command-line interface [CLI] or troubleshooting).
• Connect the router to the power source.
• Verify the router installation.
• Mount the router.
