Cisco Content Routers are the content routing elements of a larger,
Cisco Content Delivery Network (CDN) solution, which includes content
switching, content distribution and delivery, content services, and content
management, as well as content routing. The Content Router 4430 (CR-4430) is
deployed at strategic locations within your network and operates in conjunction
with Content Engines to redirect DNS requests to optimal Content Engines based
on network proximity; presence of requested content; current Content Engine
status, including load and availability; and current network conditions,
including load.

System Hardware Features
System Hardware Features
The Content Router 4430 is configured for AC-input power. The default
factory configuration comes with one power supply installed. The
Content Router 4430 has one internal 18-gigabyte (GB) Ultra2 LVD SCSI
hard drive. For network connections, the Content Router 4430 has two
10/100BASE-T Ethernet/Fast Ethernet ports with RJ-45 receptacles.
Port Ethernet 0 supports autodetect speed mode and full-duplex
operation. The second port (Ethernet 1) is currently not supported.
Table 1-1 lists the storage and memory specifications for the
Content Router 4430.

Warning
To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage
(SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN
ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits.
Some LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution
when connecting cables.

Console Cable
Cisco Content Router 4430 Hardware Installation Guide
1-6
The Content Router 4430 comes with a console cable kit that includes the
following cable and adapters:
• One RJ-45 to RJ-45 rollover cable
• Two RJ-45 to DB-9 adapters
Use the rollover cable to connect the Content Router 4430 console port to the
COM port of an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software. The
console port on the Content Router 4430 is configured as data terminal equipment
(DTE) and uses an RJ-45 connector.
By attaching an RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter to the rollover cable, you create an RJ-45
to DB-9 null modem cable.
You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the two modular ends of the cable,
as shown in Figure 1-3. Holding the cable ends in your hands side by side with the
tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left connector
(pin 1) should be the same color as the pin on the outside of the right connector
(pin 8).

Network Cables
Note The Ethernet ports on the Content Router 4430 are MDI.
78-12541-01
An Ethernet cable is required to connect the Content Router 4430 to your network.
To connect the Content Router 4430 to your network, you must use one of the
following types of cables:
• Unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) straight-through cable with RJ-45 connectors
to connect the Content Router 4430 to a Medium Dependent
Interface-crossover (MDI-X) port
• RJ-45 to RJ-45 crossover cable to connect the Content Router 4430 to another
MDI port
Use a Category 5 UTP cable to connect to a 100BASE-T network.
