This document is the Cisco uBR924 Cable Access Router Hardware Installation Guide and describes installing, powering on, and troubleshooting a Cisco uBR924 cable access router. The document also includes cabling and pinout information.
This section contains:
This guide is intended for coaxial networking transmission installers and technicians who are familiar with the installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of cable television wiring and equipment. Cable system installers and technicians should be familiar with their cable plant's base operating parameters and subscriber service offerings. Cable system support engineers and administrators should be acquainted with Ethernet and IEEE 802.3 type data communications networks.
 |
Note This document contains instructions to install or configure the Cisco uBR924 cable access router using procedures that only qualified personnel should perform. This document is not intended for subscribers. See the "Related Documentation" section of this preface for the documentation available for subscribers. |
This guide covers the physical installation of the Cisco uBR924 cable access router. These procedures include site preparation, the physical placement of the router in an appropriate location, the cabling required for the power, Ethernet, voice, and cable connections, and verification of the installation at the router's initial power-on.
These procedures do not require a connection to the router's console port, nor do they require access to the router's command-line interface (CLI). However, CLI access might be required to configure the router and to bring it to full operability. See the Cisco uBR924 Cable Access Router Software Configuration Guide for instructions on configuring the router for network operation.
This guide is organized into the following chapters and appendixes:
| Chapter | Title | Description |
|---|---|---|
Chapter 1 | Describes the Cisco uBR924 cable access router, its operation, and its interaction with the Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS). | |
Chapter 2 | Outlines site preparation requirements to meet before installing a Cisco uBR924 cable access router at a subscriber site. The chapter also discusses safety and agency considerations. | |
Chapter 3 | Provides instructions to connect the Cisco uBR924 cable access router, perform its initial power-on, and verify its basic functionality. | |
Chapter 4 | Contains basic installation troubleshooting information appropriate to field service technicians. (The troubleshooting information in this appendix does not require access to the router's console port or CLI interface.) | |
Appendix A | Contains the physical, environmental, power, data, and voice technical specifications for the router. | |
Appendix B | Contains the technical description of the interfaces on the Cisco uBR924 cable access router and the most common cables that are used with it. | |
Appendix C | Contains international agency compliance, safety, and statutory information for the Cisco uBR924 cable access router. This appendix also contains safety warnings translated into multiple languages. |
