Step 4
Verify that the OK LED on the front panel of the Cisco uBR925 Cable Access Router starts
blinking a few moments after power is applied. If this LED does not light or blink, check that
the power supply cable is plugged into the cable access router and into a working wall outlet.
Tip After a few moments, the OK LED should stop blinking and come on solid, indicating
that the router has loaded the Cisco IOS software and is ready for operations with the cable
network.
Connecting the Cisco uBR925 Cable Access Router to the
Cable System
This procedure connects the Cisco uBR925 Cable Access Router to the cable network. This is required
for all installations.
Step 1
If you are using the same outlet for both cable TV and cable network service, install a cable
splitter/directional coupler to provide separate signals for the TV and cable network signals.
(Contact your service provider for details on how to properly connect a cable splitter or
directional coupler.)
Step 2
Plug one end of the coaxial cable into the cable TV wall outlet.
Step 3
Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the connector on the rear panel of the
Cisco uBR925 Cable Access Router that is labeled Cable TV In.
Step 4
Hand-tighten each connector, making sure that each is finger-tight.
Step 5
The CATV Link LED should turn on solid after connecting the Cisco uBR925 Cable Access
Router to the cable TV wall outlet. If the CATV Link LED does not come on solid within a
few minutes, check that the coaxial cable is properly plugged into the correct cable TV outlet
and in to the cable access router's Cable TV In connector.

connect the Cisco uBR925 Cable Access Router to telephone, modem, or fax devices. If you have not
