3Com Router Module Guide Chapter 4 example, PC or router) to a HUB or LAN switch. The cables delivered with the router are straight-through cables. z Crossover cable: The wires are crimped in the RJ-45 connectors at both ends in different orders. The cable is used for connecting two terminal devices (for example, PC and router). You can make cables as needed. Note: In making network cables, shielded cables are preferred for electromagnetic compatibility sake. The interface cables in the standard package of Router 2-Port 10/100 cards are straight-through cables. 4.1.6 Connecting the Interface Cable Step 1: Plug one end of the cable to an Ethernet port on the router and another end to the device to be connected. (For a PC or router, use a straight-through cable; for a HUB or LAN switch, use a crossover cable.) Step 2: Power on the router and check the on the FIC-FE panel: ON means that a link is present and OFF means that no link is present. In the latter case, check the line status. Caution: Before you connect a port, read its label carefully; a wrong connection can cause damages to the interface card and even the device. 4.1.7 Router 1-Port 100FX MM FIC/100FX SM FIC 4.1.8 Introduction Router 1-Port 100FX MM FIC/100FX SM FIC Ethernet multi-mode fiber interface card, provides one 100 Mbps Ethernet multi-mode fiber interface. Router 1-Port 100FX MM FIC/100FX SM FIC Ethernet single-mode fiber interface card, provides one 100 Mbps Ethernet single mode fiber interface. The use of optical fibers allows the Router 1-Port 100FX MM FIC/100FX SM FIC to provide high reliability and good transmission quality for the router-to-LAN communication. The interface can work in megabit full duplex mode. 4-7
