Csu/Dsu Connections; Inspecting The Router - Cisco 1900 series Hardware Installation

Inspecting the Router

The ISDN connection is regarded as a source of voltage that should be inaccessible to user contact.
Warning
Do not attempt to tamper with or open any public telephone operator (PTO)-provided equipment or
connection hardware. Any hardwired connection (other than by a nonremovable,
connect-one-time-only plug) must be made only by PTO staff or suitably trained engineers.
Statement 23
Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports regardless of whether power to the unit is OFF
Warning
or ON. To avoid electric shock, use caution when working near WAN ports. When detaching cables,
detach the end away from the unit first. Statement 1026
Use a BRI cable (not included) to connect the BRI WIC directly to an ISDN.

CSU/DSU Connections

CSU/DSU WICs are available that provide switched 56-kbps connections, or full or fractionalized T1
connections.

Inspecting the Router
Do not unpack the router until you are ready to install it. If the final installation site will not be ready
for some time, keep the chassis in its shipping container to prevent accidental damage. When you are
ready to install the router, proceed with unpacking it.
The router, cables, publications, and any optional equipment that you ordered may be shipped in more
than one container.
Inspect all items for shipping damage. If anything appears to be damaged, or if you encounter problems
installing or configuring your router, contact customer service. Warranty, service, and support
information is in the quick start guide that shipped with your router.
