2 CHAPT E R Installing the Cisco 1005 The Cisco 1005 router is designed for quick and easy installation. This chapter provides hardware installation procedures and includes the following sections: • • • • • • • Safety Recommendations Inspecting Your Router Tools and Parts Required Setting the Router on a Desktop Mounting the Router Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Checking Your Router Installation It takes just a few simple steps to install the Cisco 1005 router.
Safety Recommendations Safety Recommendations Because any device that uses electricity must be handled carefully, follow these guidelines to ensure general safety: • • • Keep the area clear and dust-free during and after installation. • Wear safety glasses when working under any conditions that might be hazardous to your eyes. • Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe. Keep tools away from walk areas where you and others could trip over them.
Inspecting Your Router Warning Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws and regulations. (To see translated versions of this warning, see the appendix “Translated Safety Warnings.”) • If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows: — Use caution; do not become a victim yourself. Disconnect power to the router. — If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the condition of the victim and then call for help.
Tools and Parts Required • External power supply with power cord Note The power cord has the appropriate plug for the country to which the router ships. • Label printed with the serial number and Media Access Control (MAC) address, which is attached to the outside of the shipping container • The warranty package, which includes the Product Registration form, service and support information, and the Ordering Cisco Documentation publication.
Setting the Router on a Desktop • • One shielded interface cable (not provided) for the WAN port (DB-60 serial) Channel service unit/digital service unit (CSU/DSU) or modem (synchronous or asynchronous) (not provided) for access to a WAN Note To ensure agency compliance, use a shielded serial transition cable with your Cisco 1005 router when connecting to a CSU/DSU or modem. The router can be placed on any flat surface or installed in any orientation, such as upside down or on a vertical surface.
Mounting the Router Mounting the Router To mount the router on a wall or other flat surface (such as a desk or table), perform the following steps: Step 1 Turn out the plastic feet on the bottom of the router to 90 degrees so that the holes in the feet are exposed. (See Figure 2-1.
Mounting the Router Step 2 Using wall-mount hardware, including screws, that you must provide, attach the router to a wall or other flat surface. (See Figure 2-2.) Mount the router so that the following conditions are met: • The front-panel LEDs face upward and are easily visible. Later, you will use the LEDs to verify that the router is working properly. Mounting the router with the LEDs facing upward will also reduce strain on the cable connections. • The power supply does not hang from its cable.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router After installing the router, install the Flash memory card (optional), connect the interface cables, and then connect the power supply. All the connectors are on the rear panel of the router. (See Figure 2-3.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Installing the Flash Memory Card This section explains how to install an optional PCMCIA Flash memory card. If you did not order a Flash memory card, skip this section and proceed to the next section, “Connecting the Network Interface Cables.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Step 2 If you want to be able to download new software over the WAN, verify that the Flash memory card is set with write protection OFF. The write-protect switch is located at the top right edge of the card. (See Figure 2-5.) When write protection is OFF, the write-protect switch is in the left position, as shown in Figure 2-5.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Step 3 Push the Flash memory card into the PCMCIA slot on the rear panel until the Flash memory card is seated completely in the connector (inside the router). (See Figure 2-6.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Step 4 Align the bottom of the PCMCIA door with the bottom of the PCMCIA slot. (See Figure 2-7.) Then push the top of the door toward the rear panel until the plastic tabs snap into place. Replacing the door prevents dust from entering the chassis. Note If you cannot close the door completely, the Flash memory card might not be seated completely in the connector (inside the router).
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Connecting the Network Interface Cables The 10BaseT Ethernet port supports unshielded twisted-pair cabling. You must supply the cable that connects to the 10BaseT Ethernet port. To connect your Cisco 1005 router to a hub, you need a straight-through cable (see Table A-2 in the appendix “Cable Pinouts”). To connect to a PC Ethernet network interface card, you need a crossover cable (see Table A-3 in the appendix “Cable Pinouts”).
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router To connect the network interface cables to the router, perform the following steps: Step 1 Connect an Ethernet cable (not provided) to the 10BaseT port. (See Figure 2-8.) Use a straight-through Ethernet cable if you are connecting the router to a 10BaseT hub. Use a crossover Ethernet cable if you are connecting the router to a PC network interface card.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Step 2 Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your Ethernet network. You can connect the Ethernet port in one of two ways: • Connect a straight-through 10BaseT cable to a 10BaseT hub. (See Figure 2-9.) (For cable pinouts, refer to Table A-2 in the appendix “Cable Pinouts.”) • Connect the crossover 10BaseT cable to a PC network interface card. (See Figure 2-10.) (For cable pinouts, refer to Table A-3 in the appendix “Cable Pinouts.

Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Step 3 Connect a shielded serial transition cable to the serial port. (See Figure 2-11.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Step 4 Connect the other end of the shielded serial transition cable to a CSU/DSU or modem (synchronous or asynchronous). (See Figure 2-12.) The serial port operates in data terminal equipment (DTE) mode only. You cannot connect the cable to another DTE device (such as a router).

Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Connecting the Console If your router is not already configured, use the console cable in the console cable kit provided with your router to connect a console (an ASCII terminal or PC running terminal emulation software that supports EIA/TIA-232). The console cable kit contains an RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable and a RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Connecting the Power Supply To connect the power supply, perform the following steps: Step 1 Connect the DC power cable from the power supply to the DC power input on the rear panel of the router. (See Figure 2-14.) Warning This equipment has been designed for connection to TN and IT power systems. (To see translated versions of this warning, see the appendix “Translated Safety Warnings.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Step 2 Connect the female end of the power cable to the male receptacle on the power supply. (See Figure 2-15.) Figure 2-15 Connecting to the Power Supply DC power input H3810 12VDC Desktop power supply Note The router is shipped with an AC power cable that has the appropriate plug for the country in which the router will be installed.
Connecting to the Network and Powering Up the Router Step 3 Connect the male end of the power cable to the power outlet. Plugging in the power supply turns ON power to the router. (See Figure 2-16.) Figure 2-16 Connecting to the Power Outlet Power outlet DC power input H3812 12VDC Desktop power supply Warning Unplug the power cord before you work on a system that does not have an on/off switch. (To see translated versions of this warning, see the appendix “Translated Safety Warnings.
Checking Your Router Installation Checking Your Router Installation After you finish installing your router, attempt to transfer data and check the LEDs on the front panel to make sure everything is working properly. (See Figure 4-1 in the chapter “Troubleshooting the Cisco 1005.”) Step 1 Make sure that the LED labeled POWER is on steadily, and that the LED labeled SYSTEM OK is on when the router is plugged into the power source.
