installati on procedure may differ slightly, depending on your cable system.
Overview of the AN and 12-Port ANH Hardware
The BayStack AN router is a low-end multiprotocol router/bridge or
router/bridge/hub that provides both LAN and WAN connectivity. It is a
cost-ef fective option for branch off ices with minimal space and power resources.
The AN product line off ers the following networ k interface configura tions:
• Single Ethernet/Dual Synchronous
• Single Token Ring/Dual Synchronous
• Single Ethernet/Single Token Ring/Dual Synchronous
In addition, the AN can include the foll owing upgrade options:
• Integrated Services Digital Network/Basic Rate Inte rface (ISDN BRI/ST or
ISDN BRI/U)
• 56/64K DSU/CSU adapter module
• Third synchronous interface
• Additional token ring interface
• Second Ethernet interface
• N11 RMON data collection module (DCM)
• FT1/T1 DSU/CSU adapter module

For technical specifications of the AN models, refer to Appendix C
.
114113-B Rev. 00
Preparing to Install the AN
Before beginning the installation, verify the following information:
• Your AN shipment is complete and undamaged.
• You have the proper tools and equipment.
The sections that follow provide information to help you prepare for installation
You should also make sure that your installation site meets all AN site
requirements. Refer to Appendix C
