Location of Ports and Connectors
The WAVE appliance supports two Ethernet connectors and two Console ports on the front of the
appliance.
Figure 1-3 shows the back panel ports and connectors.
Hardware Features
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.
This section contains the following topics:
• Ethernet Port Connectors
• Console Port Connector
Ethernet Port Connectors
Connect a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair cable to an Ethernet connector. 100BASE-TX and
1000BASE-T Fast Ethernet standards require Category 5 or higher cabling.
The WAVE-594 and WAVE-694 appliance has two Ethernet connectors that are attached to the Ethernet
controllers (see Figure 1-5). The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. They provide
an interface for connecting to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1-Gbps network and provide full-duplex (FDX)
capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the network. If the
Ethernet ports in the server support auto negotiation, the controllers detect the data-transfer rate
(10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the
network and automatically operate at that rate and mode. You do not have to set any jumpers or configure
the controllers.
NoteThere is a third RJ45 connector on the front of the appliance (see Figure 1-1). This is a console port. Do
not connect this port to your network.

• Vista—32-bit, Business edition
• Vista—64-bit
• Windows 7—32-bit and 64-bit
To install the Cisco Microsoft Windows USB driver, perform the following steps:
NoteDo not connect the cable from the Windows PC to the WAVE appliance until after the driver is installed.
Step 1Load the DVD that came with your WAVE appliance and double-click the CUSBInst.exe file. The Cisco
Virtual Com InstallShield Wizard begins.
You can also access the driver from the WAAS software download area of Cisco.com located at:
It’s located under release 4.4.1 and the filename is CUSBInst_Signed_18May2011.exe
Step 2Click Next. The Ready to Install the Program window appears.
Step 3Click Install. The InstallShield Wizard Completed window appears.
Step 4Click Finish.
Step 5Connect the USB cable to the PC USB port and WAVE appliance mini-USB console port. Within a few
moments, the Found New Hardware Wizard appears.
Connecting a Console Terminal
Follow the instructions to complete the installation of the driver.
Step 6Once the installation is finished, the USB console is ready for use.
NoteIf the driver has been installed on the PC but does not get bound to the hardware, you can manually
browse the driver installation query to the location C:\Windows\tiinst\. The newly attached hardware will
appear in the Windows Device Manager as "TUSB3410 EECode Ser".
This solution also applies when connecting additional WAVE appliances to the same PC. Multiple WAVE
appliances can be independently administered by console sessions on the same PC.
NoteYou do not need to reinstall the driver if you change to a different USB port on your PC.
NoteIf you happen to install the driver multiple times, each time the driver is installed the virtual COM port
number assigned to the USB port gets incremented. This is expected behavior and may not get reset even
if you uninstall the driver.
