Note: The Cisco 1600 series routers are either of run-from-flash (RFF) or run-from-RAM (RFR) models. In
this document, model names without an R refer to both models. The “Router Memory” section in the hardware
installation guide that came with your router describes the differences between RFF and RFR models.

Install the Router.

There are three steps to installing your router:

Warning Hazardousnetworkvoltagesare present in WANinterfacecardports regardless of whether

power to the router is OFF or ON. To avoid electric shock, use caution when working near WAN ports.
When detaching cables, detach the end away from the router first.

A. Connect the router to your local Ethernet network(s). The router can be connected to one or two local
networks.

B. Install a WAN interface card. The router cannot make any connections outside the local network unless a
WAN interface card isinstalledandconnected.Without a WANinterfacecard installed, the router does function
correctly between two local networks.

C. Connect the power supply.After you connect the power, you can confirm proper installation by checking that
certain LEDs are on.

Install the Router (continued).

A. Connect the router to the local networks.

The router has three Ethernetports, but supports only two Ethernet connections at one time. Connect the router
to your local Ethernet networks in one of these ways:

Option 1: Connect the ETHERNET Ø 10BASET port and the ETHERNET 1 10BASET port.

Option 2: Connect the ETHERNET Ø AUI port and the ETHERNET 1 10BASET port.

Option 1

You need two RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cables and two
Ethernet hubs or switches for this option.

Option 2

You need one RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cable, one AUI cable,
and an Ethernet transceiver for this option. If the
transceiver connects directly to the router, you do

Step 1 Connect one end of the first cable to the

yellow ETHERNET Ø 10BASET port, and connect
the other endtoa network port on the hub or switch.

Step 1 Connect the Ethernet transceiver to the

yellow ETHERNET Ø AUI port, and connect the
transceiver to the local network.

Step 2 Connect the second cable to the yellow

ETHERNET 1 10BASET port as described in Step 1.

Step 2 Connect one end of the RJ-45 cable to the

yellow ETHERNET 1 10BASET port, and connect
the other endtoa network port on the hub or switch.

Install the Router (continued).

B. Install the WAN interface card.

Look for a WANinterface card in the slot on the right-rear of the router, just above the slot labeled FLASH PC
CARD. (There is no WAN interface card installed if there is a metal plate over the slot.) If the card is already
installed, connect it to your WAN line according to the instructions that came with the card. To install a card,
follow the instructions below.

Note: You must provide a Phillips
screwdriver for this step.

Step 1 Confirm that the power is OFF.
Step 2 Remove the thumbscrews that hold

the slot cover in place, and then remove the
slot cover.

Step 3 Hold the card by the edges and line it

up with the guide on the card slot.

DO NOT INSTALL ANY WAN

Step 4 Insert the card into the slot and push

in until it is firmly seated in the connector and
the front panel is flush with the router rear
panel.

Step 5 Tighten the screws that are in the

card.
Connect the card port to the WAN line

according to the instructions that came with
the card.

Install the Router (continued).

C. Connect the power supply.

After connecting the router to power and turning it on, you can confirm that you have installed the router
correctly by checking certain LEDs. Connect the router to the power supply as shown below. Depending on
where you are installing the router, your power supply and power outlet could be different from those in the
picture.

Step 1 Connect the power supply cord to the power socket on the rear panel.
Step 2 Connect the power supply to a power outlet.

Confirm that the router has power by checking that the SYSTEM PWR LED on the front panel is on.

Step 3 Confirm that the router has power by checking that the SYSTEM PWR LED on the front panel is on.

6

DO NOT INSTALL ANY WAN
MODULE WITH POWER ON

Verify Your Installation.

After the router is powered on, the following LEDs confirm that you have correctly installed your router.

LED Location What to Look For

SYSTEM PWR Front On means that power is being supplied to the router.
SYSTEM OK Front On means that the router software is loaded and functional. Blinking

means that the software is being loaded into router memory.

OK Rear, to the left of the

Flash PC card slot

LNK Rear, one next to each

10BaseT port

ETHØ ACT Front Blinking means that there is network traffic on the local Ethernet network

ETH1 ACT Front Blinking means that there is network traffic on the local Ethernet network

On means that the Flash PC card is correctly installed. If the LED is off,
refer to the hardware installation guide that came with the router for
instructions on how to re-install the card.

On means that the router is connected to a local Ethernet network
through this port. If you connected the router to a local network through
the AUI port, then the LNK LED next to the ETHERNET Ø 10BASET
should be off.

that is connected to the ETHERNET Ø 10BASET port or the
ETHERNET Ø AUI port (only one of these two ports should be
connected).

that is connected to the ETHERNET 1 10BASET port.
Refer to the documentation that came with the WAN interface card.
