This appendix provides cable pinout descriptions for the Cisco 4000 series routers.
Following are the signal summaries contained in this appendix:
The cables available from Cisco meet Federal Communications Commission (FCC) part 15J Class A requirements and Verband Deutscher Electrotechniker (VDE) 0871 Limit B levels. When constructing your own cables, refer to the appropriate documentation regarding interference considerations and cable length limitations.
Refer to Table A-1 when assembling an EIA/TIA-232 console cable or auxiliary port cable for the Cisco 4000-M and to Table A-2 when assembling an EIA/TIA-232 console cable or auxiliary port cable for the Cisco 4500-M, Cisco 4700-M, or Cisco 4800-M.

All interface types except EIA-530 are available in DTE or DCE format: DTE with a plug connector at the network end and DCE with a receptacle at the network end. V.35 is available in either mode with either gender at the network end. EIA-530 is available in DTE only.
The tables that follow list the signal pinouts for both the DTE-mode and DCE-mode serial port adapter cables for each serial interface type.
Figure A-1 shows the dual serial module EIA/TIA-232 cable assembly. Table A-4 lists the DTE and DCE pinouts.

Figure A-2 shows the serial module EIA/TIA-232 cable assembly that is used on the NP-4T and the high-speed serial ports on the NP-2T16S; Table A-5 lists the DTE pinouts; and Table A-6 lists the DCE pinouts. Arrows indicate signal direction: --> indicates DTE to DCE, and <-- indicates DCE to DTE.

The adapter cables for balanced mode are available with several connector types to accommodate connection standards in different countries. You must use the proprietary cables to connect the E1-G.703/G.704 port to your network. Cables for balanced and unbalanced modes are available with the following types of network-end connectors:
In addition to these cables, some connections require bare-wire connections (directly to terminal posts). See the E1-G.703/G.704 network processor module configuration note for complete information.
Two types of cables are available for use with an HSSI network processor module:
Figure A-14 shows the HSSI cable (product number CAB-HSI1= and part number 72-0710-xx). Table A-27 provides pinouts. The cable has a male DB-50 (SCSI) connector on each end.

The two interface receptacles on the Fast Ethernet network processor module are a single MII, 40-pin, D-shell type, and a single RJ-45. Each connection supports IEEE 802.3u interfaces that are compliant with the 100BaseX and 100BaseT standards. Only one can be used at a time.
The RJ-45 connection does not require an external transceiver. The MII connection requires an external physical sublayer (PHY) and an external transceiver. Figure A-17 shows the RJ-45 connectors.

Table A-31 lists the pinouts and signals for the RJ-45 connectors. Refer to the RJ-45 pinout in Table 5 when selecting proper common-mode line terminations for the unused Category 5, UTP cable pairs 4/5 and 7/8. Wire pairs 4/5 and 7/8 are actively terminated in the RJ-45, 100BaseTX port circuitry in the 100E module. Common-mode termination reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and susceptibility to common-mode sources.
| Pin | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Receive Data + (RxD+) |
| 2 | RxD- |
| 3 | Transmit Data + (TxD+) |
| 6 | TxD- |
Depending on your RJ-45 interface cabling requirements, use the pinouts in Figure A-18 and Figure A-19.


The module transceiver must be equipped with the appropriate connector, depending on the media type used for the MII connection. Connectors can be ST-type for optical fiber, RJ-45 for 100BaseT4, and so on. Figure A-20 shows the pin orientation of the female MII connector on the 100E module.
The MII receptacle uses 2-56 screw-type locks, called jackscrews (shown in Figure A-20), to secure the cable or transceiver to the MII port and provide strain relief. MII cables and transceivers have knurled thumbscrews (tightened with the fingers) that fasten to the jackscrews on the module's MII connector (shown in Figure A-20). In contrast, the RJ-45 modular plug has strain relief functionality incorporated into the design of its standard plastic connector.

Table A-32 lists the MII connector pinouts and signals. MII cables are available commercially.

![]() | Caution To prevent damage to the system, make certain you connect the BRI cable to the BRI connector only and not to any other RJ-45 connector. |
For the CT1, two standard T1 serial cables are available from Cisco Systems: null-modem and straight-through. A straight-through cable connects your router to an external CSU. Null-modem cables are used for back-to-back operation and testing.
The cables have male 15-pin DB connectors at each end to connect the CT1with the external CSU.
The T1 interface cable has two 15-pin DB connectors at each end to connect the CT1with the external T1 CSU. Figure A-21 shows the T1 interface cable, connectors and pinouts.
The T1 interface cables have two, male, 15-pin DB connectors (one at each end) to connect the CT1 with the external CSU. Table A-36 lists the pinouts for the null-modem T1 cable and Table A-37 lists the pinouts for the straight-through T1 cable.

For the CE1 module, four serial cables are available from Cisco Systems. All three have DB-15 connectors on the CE1 end and either BNC, DB-15, twinax, or RJ-45 connectors on the network end. Figure A-22, Figure A-23, Figure A-24, and Figure A-25 show the E1 interface cables.




The E1 interface cables have two, male, 15-pin DB connectors (one at each end) to connect the CE1with the external CSU. Table A-39 lists the pinouts for the E1 interface cables available from Cisco Systems.
