Cabling and Specifications
If you use cables other than those provided by Cisco, it is your responsibility to ensure that you have a
compliant system that meets local EMC requirements. To order additional cables, use the product
numbers: 2CBLE-SMB-BNC-M (male) and 2CBLE-SMB-BNC-F (female).
Figure 18 T3 SMB Cables (SMB terminates into BNC)
Note When you connect the 10-foot (3.048-meter) T3 cables to the line card, be careful not to
bend the male cable connector pin when you connect or disconnect the cables. Observe the
receive (RX) and transmit (TX) cabling relationship shown in Figure 19.
Figure 19 Connecting T3 Copper SMB Cables
After you connect the cables to a configured port on the line card, it takes up to 35 seconds to initialize
and light the green carrier-detected LED.
Note You must order cables, separately, with the line card when you order a Cisco 12000 Series Router.
Cables are not automatically included with line cards. Be sure to specify the type of cable you want
shipped with your card.
