THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL
STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.

THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT
SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE
OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.

The following inform ation 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
peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits
controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Preface

Reporting Security Problems in Cisco Products

Cisco is committed to delivering secure products. We test our products internally before we release them,
and we strive to correct all vulnerabilities quickly. If you think that you have identified a vulnerability
in a Cisco product, contact PSIRT:

• For emergencies only— [e-mail]

An emergency is either a condition in which a system is under active attack or a condition for which
a severe and urgent security vulnerability should be reported. All other conditions are considered
nonemergencies.

• For nonemergencies — [e-mail]

In an emergency, you can also reach PSIRT by telephone:

• 1 877 228-7302

• 1 408 525-6532

Tip We encourage you to use Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) or a compatible product (for example, GnuPG) to

encrypt any sensitive information that you send to Cisco. PSIRT can work with information that has been
encrypted with PGP versions 2.x through 9.x.

Never use a revoked encryption key or an expired encryption key. The correct public key to use in your
correspondence with PSIRT is the one linked in the Contact Summary section of the Security
Vulnerability Policy page at this URL:

To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity
definitions.

Severity 1 (S1)—An existing network is “down” or there is a critical impact to your business operations.
You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your
business operations are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco
will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of the network is impaired while most business operations
remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service
to satisfactory levels.

xviii

Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or
configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.

Safety Recommendations

Safety with Electricity

Chapter 2 Preinstallation Requirements and Planning

Warning

Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to the power source.

Statement 1004

Follow these guidelines when working on equipment powered by electricity:

• Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room in which you are working. Then, if an electrical

accident occurs, you can quickly turn off the power.

• Disconnect all power before doing the following:

–

Installing or removing a chassis

–

Working near power supplies

• Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power

extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds.

• Do not work alone if hazardous conditions exist.

• Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit. Always check.

• Never open the enclosure of the router’s internal power supply.

• If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:

–

Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.

–

Turn off power to the device.

–

If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the victim’s condition and
then call for help.

–

Determine if the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take
appropriate action.

In addition, use the following guidelines when working with any equipment that is disconnected from a
power source, but still connected to telephone wiring or other network cabling:

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for it.

• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line is disconnected at

the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It can occur if
electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can cause complete or intermittent failures.
Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replacing modules:

• Ensure that the router chassis is electrically connected to earth ground.

• Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to

an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to channel unwanted ESD voltages safely to ground. To
guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively.

• If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching a metal part of the chassis.

2-2

Cisco IAD2801 Series Integrated Access Devices Hardware Installation Guide

OL-12433-01

Chapter 2 Preinstallation Requirements and Planning

Caution For the safety of your equipment, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. It should

be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohm).

General Site Requirements

This section describes the requirements your site must meet for safe installation and operation of your
router. Ensure that the site is properly prepared before beginning installation. If you are experiencing
shutdowns or unusually high errors with your existing equipment, this section can also help you isolate
the cause of failures and prevent future problems.

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 AC power supply includes the following features:

General Site Requirements

• Autoselects either 110 V or 220 V operation.

• All units include a 6-foot (1.8-meter) electrical power cord. (A label near the power inlet indicates

the correct voltage frequency, current draw, and power dissipation for the unit.)

Site Environment

Cisco IAD2801 series integrated access devices can be placed on a desktop or installed in a rack. The
location of your router and the layout of your equipment rack or wiring room are extremely important
considerations for proper operation. Equipment placed too close together, inadequate ventilation, and
inaccessible panels can cause malfunctions and shutdowns, and can make maintenance difficult. Plan for
access to both front and rear panels of the router.

When planning your site layout and equipment locations, remember the precautions described in the next
section “Site Configuration,” to help avoid equipment failures and reduce the possibility of
environmentally caused shutdowns. If you are currently experiencing shutdowns or an unusually high
number of errors with your existing equipment, these precautions may help you isolate the cause of the
failures and prevent future problems.

Site Configuration

The following precautions will help you plan an acceptable operating environment for your router and
will help you avoid environmentally caused equipment failures:

OL-12433-01

• Ensure that the room where your router operates has adequate air circulation. Electrical equipment

generates heat. Without adequate air circulation, ambient air temperature may not cool equipment
to acceptable operating temperatures.

• Always follow ESD-prevention procedures described in the “Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

Damage” section on page 2-2 to avoid damage to equipment. Damage from static discharge can

cause immediate or intermittent equipment failure.

Cisco IAD2801 Series Integrated Access Devices Hardware Installation Guide

2-3

Installation Checklist

• Ensure that the chassis cover and module rear panels are secure. All empty network module slots,

Equipment Racks

Cisco IAD2801 series integrated access devices include brackets for use with a 19-inch rack.

Note Brackets for a 23-inch rack are not available for Cisco IAD2801 series integrated access devices.

The following information will help you plan your equipment rack configuration:

• Allow clearance around the rack for maintenance.

• Allow at least one rack unit of vertical space between routers.

• Enclosed racks must have adequate ventilation. Ensure that the rack is not congested, because each

Chapter 2 Preinstallation Requirements and Planning

interface card slots, and power supply bays must have filler panels installed. The chassis is designed
to allow cooling air to flow within it, through specially designed cooling slots. A chassis with
uncovered openings permits air leaks, which may interrupt and reduce the flow of air across internal
components.

router generates heat. An enclosed rack should have louvered sides and a fan to provide cooling air.
Heat generated by equipment near the bottom of the rack can be drawn upward into the intake ports
of the equipment above.

• When mounting a chassis in an open rack, ensure that the rack frame does not block the intake or

exhaust ports. If the chassis is installed on slides, check the position of the chassis when it is seated
into the rack.

• Baffles can help to isolate exhaust air from intake air, which also helps to draw cooling air through

the chassis. The best placement of the baffles depends on the airflow patterns in the rack, which can
be found by experimenting with different configurations.

• When equipment installed in a rack (particularly in an enclosed rack) fails, try operating the

equipment by itself, if possible. Power off other equipment in the rack (and in adjacent racks) to
allow the router under test a maximum of cooling air and clean power.

Installation Checklist

The sample installation checklist lists items and procedures for installing a new router. Make a copy of
this checklist and mark the entries when completed. Include a copy of the checklist for each router in
your Site Log (described in the next section, “Creating a Site Log”).

Port and Cable Information

This document provides information about cables needed to install your Cisco IAD2801. It includes the
following sections:

• Console and Auxiliary Port Considerations, page 3-1

• Preparing to Connect to a Network, page 3-2

Console and Auxiliary Port Considerations

The router includes an console port and an auxiliary port. The console and auxiliary ports provide access
to the router either locally using a console terminal connected to the console port, or remotely using a
modem connected to the auxiliary port. This section discusses important cabling information to consider
before connecting the router to a console terminal or modem.

The main difference between the console and auxiliary ports is that the auxiliary port supports hardware
flow control and the console port does not. Flow control paces the transmission of data between a
sending device and a receiving device. Flow control ensures that the receiving device can absorb the data
sent to it before the sending device sends more. When the buffers on the receiving device are full, a
message is sent to the sending device to suspend transmission until the data in the buffers has been
processed. Because the auxiliary port supports flow control, it is ideally suited for use with the
high-speed transmissions of a modem. Console terminals send data at slower speeds than modems;
therefore, the console port is ideally suited for use with console terminals.

Console Port Connections

For connection to a PC running terminal emulation software, your router is provided with an RJ-45 to
DB-9 adapter cable.

To connect the router to an ASCII terminal, use the RJ-45-to-DB-9 cable and a DB-9-to-DB-25 adapter.

The default parameters for the console port are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. The
console port does not support hardware flow control. For detailed information about installing a console
terminal, see the “Connecting to a Console Terminal or Modem” section on page 5-3.

For cable and port pinouts, refer to the online document Cisco Modular Access Router Cable

Specifications. This document is located on Cisco.com.

Solving Problems

When solving problems, consider the following router subsystems:

• Power and cooling systems—External power source, power cable, router power supply and circuit

breaker, and router blower and fan. Also consider inadequate ventilation or air circulation.

• Modules—LEDs on the modules help identify a failure.

• Cables—External cables that connect the router to the network.

Troubleshooting the Power and Cooling Systems

Both the system LED and the fans can help you troubleshoot a power problem. Check the following
items to help isolate the problem:

Normal Indications

With the power switch on, the normal indications are:

• SYS PWR LED on green and continuous

• Fans operating

Appendix A Troubleshooting

Fault Indications

Check the following symptoms to locate or eliminate faults in the power and cooling systems:

• With the power switch on, is the SYS PWR LED on?

• Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage, page C-1

• Removing a CompactFlash Memory Card, page C-2

• Installing a CompactFlash Memory Card, page C-2

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

CompactFlash memory cards are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur
when electronic cards or components are handled improperly, results in complete or intermittent failures.

To prevent ESD damage, follow these guidelines:

C

• Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.

• Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unfinished chassis surface.

• Place a removed CompactFlash memory card on an antistatic surface or in a static shielding bag. If

the card will be returned to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.

• Avoid contact between the card and clothing. The wrist strap protects the card from ESD voltages

on the body only; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

• Do not remove the wrist strap until the installation is complete.

Caution For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be

between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).

To install a CompactFlash memory card, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Make sure that the ejector button is fully seated so that it does not project out from the panel.

Note If the ejector button is projecting out from the panel, push it in until it is flush with the bezel.

Step 2 Insert the CompactFlash memory card into the slot until it is fully seated. The ejector button remains

flush with the panel.

Note If the ejector button is projecting from the panel after you insert the CompactFlash memory card,

remove the CompactFlash memory card, press the ejector button until it clicks, and reinsert the
CompactFlash memory card.

Caution To prevent damage to the ejector mechanism, the ejector button must remain fully seated when not being

used to eject a CompactFlash memory card.
