NOTE:

Strictly follow the pinouts in the above tables when identifying or making the two types of Ethernet cables;
otherwise, the communication quality might be affected.

Making an Ethernet cable

1.

Cut the cable to a required length with the crimping pliers.

2.

Strip off an appropriate length of the cable sheath. The length is typically that of the RJ-45
connector.

3.

Untwist the pairs so that they can lay flat, and arrange the colored wires based on the wiring
specifications.

4.

Cut the top of the wires even with one another. Insert the wires into the RJ-45 end and make sure

the wires extend to the front of the RJ-45 end and make good contact with the metal contacts in the
RJ-45 end and in the correct order.

5.

Crimp the RJ-45 connector with the crimping pliers until you hear a click.

6.

Use a cable tester to verify the correct connectivity of the cable.

Connecting an Ethernet cable

1.

Plug one end of an Ethernet twisted pair cable into the copper Ethernet port (RJ-45 port) to be
connected on the router and the other end of the cable into the Ethernet port of the peer device. The

10/100/1000Base-T copper ports of the router support MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing. They are

connected to the network through category-5 or above twisted pairs that are equipped with RJ-45

connectors.

2.

Check the status LED of the Ethernet ports. For more information about the LED status, see

"

Appendix C LEDs

Connecting a fiber cable

Transceiver module overview

When you use a fiber port, you need an SFP, XFP, or SFP+ transceiver module and a fiber cable with an

LC connector.

SFP transceiver module—Applicable to 100/1000 Mbps Ethernet fiber ports and SFP ports on
some HIMs.
