Cisco 3600 series routers are modular access routers with LAN and WAN connections that can be configured by means of interchangeable modules and WAN interface cards. The modular design of the routers provides flexibility, allowing you to configure or reconfigure your router according to your needs.
This guide discusses the following router models:
This chapter includes the following sections:
Figure 1-1 through Figure 1-3 show the front panels of the routers.



Figure 1-4 and Figure 1-5 show Cisco 3660 AC power supplies installed. The DC power supplies differ in appearance but occupy the same bays in the router.

The following regulatory compliance information pertains to Cisco 3600 series routers.
The router complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the bottom of the router is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number. If requested, you must provide this information to the telephone company.
An FCC-compliant cord and modular plug is provided with the router. The router is designed for connection to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack that is Part 68 compliant.
The router cannot be used on telephone company-provided coin service. Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs.
If the router causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that it may be necessary to temporarily discontinue service. If advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify you as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of the router. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice for you to make the necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.
If you experience trouble with the router and need information on repairs and warranty, refer to the Cisco Information Packet publication that accompanied the router. If the trouble is harming the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you remove the router from the network until the problem is resolved.
To avoid damage to the router caused by local lightning strikes or other electrical surges, install an AC surge arrestor in the AC outlet to which the router is connected.
The router uses universal service order code (USOC) jacks as described in Table 1-7.

CA81A | 800-01226, 800-01227 | 04DU9-BN, 04DU9-DN, 04DU9-1KN, 04DU9-1SN, 04DU9-1ZN | 6.0N | DSUB-15F with DSUB-15 cable |
CA81A | 800-01228, 800-01229 | 04DU9-BN, 04DU9-DN, 04DU9-1KN, 04DU9-1SN, 04DU9-1ZN | 6.0N | RJ-48C |
CA-A11 | 800-1238, 800-01239 | 02IS5 | 6.0N | RJ-45 |
CA-A11 | 800-01834 | 02IS5 | 6.0N | RJ-45 |
The routers are CS-03 certified. Observe the following general information and safety precautions:
![]() | Warning Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. |
Cisco 3600 series routers comply with the following EMC standards:
The equipment described in this document 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.
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:
Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.
