The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required
to correct the interference at their own expense.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not
installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable
protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital
devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television
communications at your own expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its

Two Gigabit Ethernet (GE) ports are RJ-45 ports located on the rear panel of the chassis: GE0 and GE1
(selectable). To configure the Ethernet ports, see the CiscoGateways SoftwareConfiguration Guide. Both ports use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable and
require Category 5 cable. The maximum segment distance is 328 feet (100 meters). UTP cables look like
the cables used for ordinary telephones; however, UTP cables meet certain electrical standards that
telephone cables do not. Cables are not included.
CautionTo comply with the intra-building lightning surge requirements of GR-1089-CORE, Issue III, October
2002, you must use a shielded cable when connecting to either of the Cisco
gateway Ethernet ports. The cable must consist of shielded cable terminated by shielded connectors on
both ends, with the cable shield material tied to both connectors.
Console and Auxiliary Ports
The chassis includes an asynchronous serial console port and an auxiliary port. The console and
auxiliary ports provide access either locally (with a console terminal) or remotely (with a modem). This
section discusses important cabling information to consider before connecting a console terminal (an
ASCII terminal or PC running terminal emulation software) to the console port or modem to the
auxiliary port.

Console Port
Auxiliary Port
The chassis includes an EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous serial console port (RJ-45). Depending on the cable
and the adapter used, this port appears as a data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communications
equipment (DCE) device at the end of the cable. Your chassis arrives with cables and adapters to connect
a console terminal (an ASCII terminal or PC running terminal emulation software) to the console port.
To connect an ASCII terminal to the console port, use the RJ-45 rollover cable with the female
RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter (labeled TERMINAL).
To connect a PC running terminal emulation software to the console port, use the RJ-45 rollover cable
with the female RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter (labeled TERMINAL). The default parameters for the console
port are 9600 baud, 8
flow control.
For detailed information about installing a console terminal, see Chapter 3, “Installing the
Cisco AS5400XM Universal Gateway.” See Appendix C, “Cabling Specifications,” for cable and port
pinouts.
The chassis includes an EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous serial auxiliary port (RJ-45) that supports flow
control. Depending on the cable and the adapter used, this port will appear as a DTE or DCE device at
the end of the cable. Your chassis arrives with a cable and an adapter to connect a modem to the auxiliary
port. To connect a modem to the auxiliary port, use the RJ-45 rollover cable with the male
RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter (labeled MODEM).
For detailed information about connecting devices to the auxiliary port, see Chapter 3, “Installing the
Cisco AS5400XM Universal Gateway.” See Appendix C, “Cabling Specifications,” for cable and port
pinouts.
data bits, no parity, and 2 stop bits. The console port does not support hardware
Two high-speed 12-in-1 serial ports on the rear panel of the chassis provide backhaul WAN and IP
support.
The following types of serial interface standards (in DTE or DCE devices) are supported:
•EIA/TIA-232
•EIA/TIA-449
•EIA/TIA-530
•EIA/TIA-530A
•EIA/TIA-X.21
•CCITT V.35
Each port supports up to 8 Mbps.
For detailed information about connecting devices to the serial ports, see Chapter 3, “Installing the
Cisco AS5400XM Universal Gateway.” See Appendix C, “Cabling Specifications,” for cable and port
pinouts.
Alarm Port
The three pins on the alarm port are connected to the output of a relay. This relay is controlled by system
software. With the alarm ports connected and configured, Cisco
detect the failure events that are configured and turns on the alarm when it detects any failure event.
For detailed information about connecting devices to the alarm port, see Chapter 3, “Installing the
Cisco AS5400XM Universal Gateway.” See Appendix C, “Cabling Specifications,” for cable and port
pinouts.
BITS Port
The BITS port is a coaxial interface that provides external synchronized clocking through a timing signal
generator (TSG).
For detailed information about connecting devices to the BITS port, see Chapter 3, “Installing the
Cisco AS5400XM Universal Gateway.” See Appendix C, “Cabling Specifications,” for cable and port
pinouts.
Power Supply Considerations
Check the power at your site to ensure that you are receiving “clean” power (free of spikes and noise).
Install a power conditioner if necessary.
The device is designed to work with TN power systems.
