CIDS Network Module LEDs
Connecting CIDS Network Modules to the Network
To connect a CIDS network module to the network, use a straight-through two-pair Category 5
unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable to connect the RJ-45 port on the CIDS network module to a switch,
hub, repeater, server, or other network device. (See
RJ-45 cables are not available from Cisco Systems. These cables are widely available and must be

Caution
connect the CIDS network module (NM-CIDS-K9) only to intrabuilding or nonexposed wiring or
cabling. The intrabuilding cable must be shielded and the shield must be grounded at both ends.

CIDS Network Module LEDs
All network modules have an enable (EN) LED. This LED indicates that the module has passed its
self-tests and is available to the router.
All CIDS network modules display an additional power (PWR) LED and a CompactFlash (CF) LED on
the faceplate, and two additional LEDs for the Fast Ethernet port (see
