Connecting Fast Ethernet HWICs to a Network 1- and 2-Port Fast Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards Connecting Fast Ethernet HWICs to a Network To connect a Fast Ethernet HWIC to the network, do the following procedure: Step 1 Confirm that the router is powered down. Warning To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety, connect the HWIC-1FE and HWIC-2FE interface cards only to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cable. The intrabuilding cable must be shielded and the shield must be grounded at both ends. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly must not be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring. Step 2 Insert the Fast Ethernet HWIC into an HWIC slot on the router. (See Chapter , "Installing Cisco Interface Cards in Cisco Access Routers.") Note Insert Fast Ethernet HWICs into HWIC slots only. They do not fit into WIC/VIC slots. Step 3 Using the appropriate cables, connect the HWIC to your system. Caution To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety, connect the 1-port HWIC (HWIC-1FE) and 2-port HWIC (HWIC-2FE) only to intrabuilding or nonexposed wiring or cabling. Step 4 • For 10BASE-T operation, Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP cable may be used, for distances of up to 328 feet (100 meters). • For 100BASE-TX operation, Category 5 UTP cable is required, for distances of up to 328 feet (100 meters). • The HWICs support Auto-MDIX, so either straight-through or crossover cable can be used. Power up the router. Additional References For additional information, see the following documents and resources.

1- and 2-Port Fast Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards
Connecting Fast Ethernet HWICs to a Network

OL-12851-01
Connecting Fast Ethernet HWICs to a Network
To connect a Fast Ethernet HWIC to the network, do the following procedure:
Step 1
Confirm that the router is powered down.
Warning
To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety,
connect the HWIC-1FE and HWIC-2FE interface cards only to intra-building or unexposed wiring or
cable.
The intrabuilding cable must be shielded and the shield must be grounded at both ends. The
intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly must not be metallically connected to
interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring.
These interfaces are designed for use as
intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and
require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling.
The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient
protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
Step 2
Insert the Fast Ethernet HWIC into an HWIC slot on the router. (See
Chapter , “Installing Cisco Interface
Cards in Cisco Access Routers.”
)
Note
Insert Fast Ethernet HWICs into HWIC slots only. They do not fit into WIC/VIC slots.
Step 3
Using the appropriate cables, connect the HWIC to your system.
Caution
To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety,
connect the 1-port HWIC (HWIC-1FE) and 2-port HWIC (HWIC-2FE) only to intrabuilding or
nonexposed wiring or cabling.
For 10BASE-T operation, Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP cable may be used, for distances of up to
328 feet (100 meters).
For 100BASE-TX operation, Category 5 UTP cable is required, for distances of up to
328 feet (100 meters).
The HWICs support Auto-MDIX, so either straight-through or crossover cable can be used.
Step 4
Power up the router.
