Thick Ethernet
To connect the router’s Ethernet port to a standard (thick) Ethernet cable
you will need a transceiver cable connection at the correct location on
your Ethernet cable. The transceiver cable will attach directly to the
DB-15 connector on the router.

10Base-T Twisted-Pair Ethernet
To connect the router’s Ethernet port to twisted-pair Ethernet cabling
you will need an unshielded twisted-pair wire that is connected to a
10BaseT-compatible twisted-pair hub.

v Note: These hardware installation instructions assume that your
Ethernet cabling is already in place. Thin coaxial Ethernet network
cabling should be terminated at each end with 50 Ohm terminator
plugs. A T-connector or transceiver must be available in the location
where you will be installing the router.

Telco Line Connection Requirements
The MicroRouter 900i is not a line communications device. In order to
connect to a wide area transmission line, you must use a modem, 56K
CSU/DSU, or ISDN Terminal Adapter. Which of these devices you use
depends on the type of wide area line to which you are connecting.

depends on the type of wide area line to which you are connecting.
v Note: Before attempting to connect the MicroRouter 900i to a leased
telco line, use the loopback features of your CSU/DSU’s to check the
line. This can save you a considerable amount of time, since the more
equipment you have on the line, the more difficult it becomes to
determine where a problem is occurring.

RS-232 Port
No matter which type of wide area line you plan to connect to, the line
communications device you use must provide an RS-232 connection in
order to be used with the MicroRouter.
