Chapter 4 Removing and Installing the NSE
Attaching the Console Port and Auxiliary Port Cables
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.
Intra-Building Lightning Protection
Shielded cables, which are grounded at both ends, are required to be used on the 10/100/1000
Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45) port in order to be in compliance with requirement
R4-11 in GR-1089-Core for a Central Office environment. This is not a requirement for customer
premise installations.
Attaching the Console Port and Auxiliary Port Cables
If you have removed the console port and auxiliary port cables, reconnect them to the appropriate port.
Note
On the NSEs, the auxiliary port should be connected using straight-through cables and the console port
should be connected using rollover cables.
This completes the procedures for connecting the console and auxiliary port cables.
Reconnecting Input Power and Powering Up the Router
The following procedures explain how to reconnect input power to a Cisco 7304 router, power up the
router, and verify a successful system boot.
Warning
Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power source.
Reconnecting AC-Input Power
To reconnect AC-input power to a Cisco 7304 router, complete the following steps:
Step 1
Plug the power cable into the AC connector on the router.
Step 2
Plug the AC power supply cable into the AC power source.
Step 3
Turn the power switch on.
Note
For the Cisco 7304 router, each AC-input power supply operating at 120 VAC requires a
minimum of 5A service.
Step 4
Repeat this procedure if a second power supply is installed.
