The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate
radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television
reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in
part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class
A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct
any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco
equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by
using one or more of the following measures:
• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television
or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Safety
Safety
Before installing the router, read the following warnings:
Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install

or replace this equipment.
Warning Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to
its power source.
Warning Before working on a system that has a standby/off switch, turn the
power to standby and unplug the power cord.
Warning Before working on equipment that is connected to power lines,

remove jewelry (including rings, necklaces, and watches). Metal
objects will heat up when connected to power and ground and can
cause serious burns or weld the metal object to the terminals.
Warning The ISDN connection is regarded as a source of voltage that

should be inaccessible to user contact. 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.
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.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Warning Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to

all national laws and regulations.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a transfer of electrostatic charge between bodies
of different electrostatic potentials, such as a person and a piece of electrical
equipment. It occurs when electronic components are improperly handled, and it
can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. Electrostatic discharge is
more likely to occur with the combination of synthetic fibers and dry atmosphere.
Always use the following ESD-prevention procedures when removing and
replacing components:
1. Connect the chassis to earth ground with a wire that you provide.
2. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap that you provide, ensuring that it makes
good skin contact.
Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely channel
unwanted ESD voltages to ground. To properly guard against ESD damage
and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap
is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis. Always
follow the guidelines in the preceding section, “Safety.”
3. Do not touch any exposed contact pins or connector shells of interface ports
that do not have a cable attached.
If cables are connected at one end only, do not touch the exposed pins at the
unconnected end of the cable.

78-5373-02 2-3
Preventing Router Damage
Note This device is intended for use in residential and commercial

environments only.
Caution Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which
should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).
Preventing Router Damage

Use the following guidelines when connecting devices to your router:
• Connect the color-coded cables supplied by Cisco Systems to the color-coded
ports on the back panel.
• If you must supply your own cable, see the “Cabling Specifications” section
in Appendix B, “Specifications and Cables.” If this appendix does not
provide specifications for a particular cable, we strongly recommend
ordering the cable from Cisco Systems.
• If the symbol of suitability ( ) appears above a port, you can connect the port
directly to a public network that follows the European Union standards.

Preinstallation Activities
Preinstallation Activities
Before you begin installing your Cisco 800 series router, perform the following
steps:
Step 1 Order an ISDN BRI line from your telephone service provider. For more
information, refer to the Cisco 800 Series Routers Software Configuration Guide.
Step 2 If you have a Cisco 801 or 803 router, do the following:
• If you are outside of North America, ask your telephone service provider if
you must provide an external Network Termination 1 (NT1) and the ISDN U
cable that connects the NT1 to the ISDN wall jack. Ask for NT1 vendors if
necessary.
• If you are in North America, ask your telephone service provider for external
NT1 vendors. Provide the ISDN U cable that connects the NT1 to the ISDN
wall jack.
Step 3 Be aware of Ethernet, ISDN, and IDSL cable distance limitations. For more
information, refer to the “Maximum Cable Distances” section in Appendix B,
“Specifications and Cables.”
Step 4 Gather the Ethernet devices to be connected to the router: hub, server,
workstation, or PC with 10- or 10/100-Mbps network interface card (NIC).
Step 5 If you have a Cisco 801 or 803 router and plan to connect a digital telephone, you
must provide an NT1 with two S/T interfaces and one U interface, a telephone
cable to connect the telephone (usually this cable is provided with the device), and
an ISDN U cable that connects the NT1 to the ISDN wall jack.
Step 6 If you have a Cisco 803 or 804 router, gather the devices (such as an analog
telephone, fax machine, or modem) that you plan on connecting to the router. You
must also provide the telephone cable to connect each device (usually this cable
is provided with the device).
Step 7 If you plan to configure the software using a terminal or PC connected to the
router, provide the terminal or PC.
Step 8 If you plan to mount your router on a wall or vertical surface, you need to provide
two number-six, 3/4-in. (M3.5 x 20 mm) screws. If the wall on which you mount
your router is drywall, you instead need to provide two hollow wall-anchors
(1/8-in. with 5/16-in. drill bit or M3 with 8-mm drill bit) to secure the screws.

faxes, or modems to be connected to these RJ-11 connectors. In some countries,
these adapters need additional electronics to convert the telephones, faxes, or
modems to work properly with the router phone ports. For example, in the
United Kingdom, you must buy an adapter that also provides a master socket,
which causes incoming calls to ring the connected devices. For information on
recommended master sockets, see Table 2-2.
Warning This equipment contains a ring signal generator (ringer), which is

a source of hazardous voltage. Do not touch the RJ-11 (phone) port
wires (conductors), the conductors of a cable connected to the
RJ-11 port, or the associated circuit-board when the ringer is
active. The ringer is activated (indicated by a clicking sound) by
an incoming call.
Caution Do not connect the router telephone ports to the telephone wall jack.
These ports are not meant for direct connection to a public network.
This connection can damage your router.

Mounting Your Router

You can mount your router on one of the following surfaces:
• Table or other horizontal surface
• Wall or other vertical surface
Mounting on a Table
You can mount your router on a table or other horizontal surface. Use the
following guidelines:
• Do not cover or obstruct router vents, which are located on the router sides.
• You can stack a maximum of five routers atop one another.
Mounting on a Wall
You can mount your router on a wall or other vertical surface by using the molded
mounting brackets on the bottom of the router and two number-six, 3/4-in.
(M3.5 x 20 mm) screws. You must provide the screws. Figure 2-12 shows the
mounting brackets.
Caution If the wall to which you mount your router is drywall, use two
hollow wall-anchors (1/8-in. with 5/16-in. drill bit or M3 with 8-mm
drill bit) to secure the screws. If the screws are not properly
anchored, the strain of the network cable connections could pull the
router from the wall.

When mounting the router, the following conditions must be met:
• Because you will use the LEDs as status and problem indicators, the LEDs on
the front panel must face upward and be easily visible.
• The back panel must face downward to reduce strain on the cable
connections.
• The power supply must rest on a horizontal surface such as the floor or a
table. If the power supply is not supported, it might place strain on the power
supply cable and cause it to disconnect from the connector on the router back
panel.

A P P E N D I X A
Concepts
This appendix provides further explanation of ISDN and IDSL concepts.

The Cisco 800 series routers provide one basic rate interface (BRI). The ISDN
BRI service provided by your telephone service provider offers two bearer
channels (B channels) and one data channel (D channel). The B channel operates
at 64 kbps and carries user data. The D channel operates at 16 kbps and carries
control and signaling information although it can support user data transmission
under certain circumstances.
Cisco 801 and 803 routers have an ISDN S/T port, Cisco 802 and 804 routers have
an ISDN U port, and Cisco 802 IDSL and 804 IDSL routers have an IDSL port.
Outside North America, telephone service providers typically provide an S/T
interface. The S/T interfaces are four-wire (two pairs of wires) interfaces from the
phone switch that supports full-duplex data transfer over two pairs of wires.
In North America, telephone service providers typically provide a U interface.
The U interface is a two-wire (single pair) interface from the phone switch that
supports full-duplex data transfer over a single pair of wires.
Cisco 803 and Cisco 804 routers support data and voice applications. The data
applications on these routers are implemented through the ISDN port on these
routers. The voice applications on these routers are implemented with ISDN BRI
and through the telephone ports.
