THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL
STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.
THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT

OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required
to correct the interference at their own expense.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not
installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable
protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital
devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television
communications at your own expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its
peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits
controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Definitions of Service Request Severity
To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity
definitions.
Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You
and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your
business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco
will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations
remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service
to satisfactory levels.
Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or
configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.

Overview of the Cisco MWR 1941-DC Router
Primary Uses of the MWR 1941-DC Router
IP-RAN Solution Implementation
In an IP RAN solution, the MWR 1941-DC extends IP connectivity to the cell site and Base Transceiver
Station (BTS). Through a FastEthernet interface to the BTS, provides bandwidth-efficient IP transport
of voice and data bearer traffic, as well as maintenance, control, and signalling traffic, over the leased
line backhaul network between the BTS and leased line termination and aggregation node via
compression (cRTP/cUDP) and packet multiplexing (PPPmux and MLPPP).
Figure 1-1 shows the placement of and connections for the MWR 1941-DC in an IP-RAN solution.

pBTS
In the IP-RAN solution, the BTS site consists of a pair of MWR 1941-DC routers. The pair of
MWR 1941-DC routers provides for an active and standby router for redundancy. A failure of the active
MWR 1941-DC causes the standby router to take over as the active router for the BTS site.
Each pair of MWR 1941-DC routers at the BTS site is identical in hardware configuration. They connect
to each other through the BTS via the Fast Ethernet interfaces. The individual backhaul links to an
MWR 1941-DC router are cabled from a single T1/E1 termination block in the BTS, connecting to both
the active and standby routers utilizing a “Y” cable. The redundancy design to control the active/standby
transitions of the router pair leverages HSRP to control the relays on the VWIC-2MFT-T1-DIR (or
VWIC-2MFT-E1-DIR) in each router to ensure that the relays on the active router are closed and the
relays on the standby router are open to avoid double termination of the T1 (or E1).
Cell Site DCN Solution Implementation
With Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)MC1a and later, the MWR 1941-DC can be used to extend the mobile
operators data communications network (DCN) to the cell site, providing the ability to remotely manage
radio and ancillary cell site equipment from the operations center.
A Cell Site DCN minimizes the need to dispatch technicians for every problem that might occur by
providing the ability to remotely perform the following types of tasks:
•
troubleshooting
•
diagnosis
•
repairs
•
control
•
upgrades
•
routine maintenance of the cell site devices
A Cell Site DCN also provides IP connectivity to the cell site, enabling IP-related applications that
facilitate operation support (for example, web camera for site surveillance, IP telephone for voice
connectivity, and the LAN extension to the cell site to provide access to network applications and data,
and access to the Internet and/or intranet).

ports are fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3 and 802.3U standards and integrate the media access
control (MAC) functions and a dual-speed MII interface. Both ports can operate in half- or full-duplex
mode and can run independently of one another. For each FE interface, there are two green LEDs, one
for Link Integrity and one for Link Activity.
Voice/WAN Interface Cards
The Cisco MWR 1941-DC router supports the following Voice/WAN interface cards (VWICs):
Note
•
2-port T1/Fractional T1 Drop and Insert Multiflex Trunk Interface Card: VWIC-2MFT-T1-DIR(=)
•
2-port E1/Fractional E1 Drop and Insert Multiflex Trunk Interface Card: VWIC-2MFT-E1-DIR(=)
•
2-port Asynchronous/Synchronous WAN Interface Card: WIC-2A/S(=)
The WIC-2A/S is supported by the Cell Site DCN implementation only with Cisco IOS
Release 12.2(15)MC1a and later.
IVWIC-2MFT-T1/E1-DIR
The Cisco VWIC-2MFT-T1-DIR and VWIC-2MFT-E1-DIR VWICs support data applications on the
Cisco MWR 1941-DC Mobile Wireless Edge Router for T1/E1 networks. These cards are dual-port,
T1/Fractional T1 or E1/Fractional E1, Drop and Insert Multiplexers with integrated T1 CSU/DSUs or
E1 DSUs. The T1 version supports framed and unframed traffic, and the E1 version supports framed
traffic and unframed traffic that conforms to the ITU-T G.703 standard for full 2.048 Mbps bandwidth.
The Drop and Insert multiplexer diverts (drops) streams of an aggregate Time Division Multiplexed
(TDM) traffic stream, and introduces (inserts) different streams for transmission in the time slots that
were previously occupied by the dropped streams. Each VWIC supports a limited channelized capability
where the T1 or E1 can be flexibly split into two fractional channel groups, one on each port or two on
one port. The switching operation can be maintained through router restarts and reloads of Cisco IOS
software.

WIC-2A/S
The dual-serial port WAN Interface Card (WIC-2A/S) provides higher levels of serial port density for a
single WIC on the MWR 1941-DC router in a Cell Site DCN implementation. The low serial speed
WIC-2A/S supports up to 128 Kbps synchronous or 115.2 Kbps asynchronous serial links. Each port on
a WIC is a different physical interface and can support different protocols such as Point-to-Point
Protocol (PPP) or Frame Relay and Data Terminal Equipment/Data Communications Equipment
(DTE/DCE). This WIC supports mixed asynchronous and synchronous operation on a single card as
well.
These dual-serial port WICs feature Cisco's new, compact, Smart Serial connectors to support a wide
variety of electrical interfaces when used with the appropriate transition cable. This includes: V.35,
RS-232, RS-449, RS-530, RS-530A in male and female versions for both DTE and DCE devices. This
feature provides easy configuration and reconfiguration as network requirements change, without the
need of purchasing a different serial interface card.
The WIC-2A/S provides two serial ports using the Smart Serial connector.

The IP-RAN implementation does not support the third VWIC or network module slot.
The Cisco MWR 1941-DC router chassis contains the following LAN and WAN interface types:
•
Two built-in Fast Ethernet LAN interfaces
•
Three slots in which you can install Voice/WAN interface cards (VWICs)
•
One slot in which you can install a network module
The slot numbers are as follows:
•
0 for all built-in interfaces
•
0 for all built-in VWIC slots

Interface (port) numbers begin at 0 for each interface type, and continue from right to left.
•
The two built-in Ethernet 10/100 interfaces are Fast Ethernet 0/0 and Fast Ethernet 0/1.
•
The slot number for all VWIC interfaces in the built-in VWIC slot is always 0. (The W0, W1, and
W2 slot designations are for physical slot identification only.) Interfaces in the VWICs are
numbered from right to left, starting with 0/0 for each interface type, regardless of the physical
VWIC slot in which the VWICs are installed.

Regulatory Compliance
For example, if you have a VWIC in two of the VWIC slots (W0 and W1), then the interfaces are:
– Serial 0/0 and Serial 0/1 in physical slot W0
– Serial 0/2 and Serial 0/3 in physical slot W1
However, if you install a VWIC in physical slot W1 (leaving slot W0 empty), the interfaces in slot
W1 are Serial 0/0 and Serial 0/1. If you then add a VWIC to slot W0, the interface numbering will
shift. The configuration that you created for interfaces Serial 0/0 and Serial 0/1 will now be applied
to the VWIC in slot W0 and you will need to create a new configuration for the interfaces that you
previously configured on W1 (which will now be Serial 0/2 and Serial 0/3).
•
The slot number of WIC/VWIC interfaces installed in slot 1 using a WAN network module is always
1 and the interfaces are always numbered from the right to left.
•
The slot number for all network module interfaces is always 1 and the interfaces are always
numbered from right to left starting with 1/0.

Safety Recommendations
Safety with Electricity
Warning
Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit.
Warning
This unit is intended for installation in restricted access areas. A restricted access area can be
accessed only through the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security.
Warning
To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network
voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some
LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.
Warning
Before working on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove jewelry (including rings,
necklaces, and watches). Metal objects will heat up when connected to power and ground and can
cause serious burns or weld the metal object to the terminals.
Warning
Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units;
disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.
Follow these guidelines when working on equipment powered by electricity:
•
Locate the room’s emergency power-OFF switch. Then, if an electrical accident occurs, you can
quickly shut the power OFF.
•
Before working on the system, turn the DC main circuit breaker off and disconnect the power
cord/terminal block cable.
•
Disconnect all power before doing the following:
– Working on or near power supplies
– Installing or removing a router chassis or network processor module
– Performing most hardware upgrades
•
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
•
Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power
extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
•
Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit. Always check.
•
If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:
– Use caution, and do not become a victim yourself.
– Turn OFF power to the system.
– If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, determine the condition of the
victim and then call for help.
– Determine if the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take
appropriate action.

Preparing to Install the Router
General Site Requirements
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It can occur if
electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can cause complete or intermittent failures.
Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replacing modules:
Caution
•
Ensure that the router chassis is electrically connected to earth ground.
•
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to
an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to channel unwanted ESD voltages safely to ground. To
guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively.
•
If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching a metal part of the chassis.
For the safety of your equipment, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. It should
be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohm).
General Site Requirements
You can mount the Cisco MWR 1941-DC router in a 19-inch rack (with a 17.5- or 17.75-inch opening).
The following information will help you plan your equipment rack configuration:
•
Allow clearance around the rack for maintenance.
•
Enclosed racks must have adequate ventilation. Ensure that the rack is not congested, because each
router generates heat. An enclosed rack should have louvered sides and a fan to provide cooling air.
Heat generated by equipment near the bottom of the rack can be drawn upward into the intake ports
of the equipment above.
•
When mounting a chassis in an open rack, ensure that the rack frame does not block the intake or
exhaust ports. If the chassis is installed on slides, check the position of the chassis when it is seated
into the rack.
•
Baffles can help to isolate exhaust air from intake air, which also helps to draw cooling air through
the chassis. The best placement of the baffles depends on the airflow patterns in the rack, which can
be found by experimenting with different configurations.
•
When equipment installed in a rack (particularly in an enclosed rack) fails, try operating the
equipment by itself, if possible. Power OFF other equipment in the rack (and in adjacent racks) to
allow the router under test a maximum of cooling air and clean power.

Console and Auxiliary Port Considerations
The router includes an asynchronous serial console port and an auxiliary port. The console and auxiliary
ports provide access to the router either locally using a console terminal, or remotely using a modem
connected to the auxiliary port. This section discusses important cabling information to consider before
connecting a console terminal, which can be either an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal
emulation software, to the console port or modem to the auxiliary port.
The main difference between the console and auxiliary ports is that the auxiliary port supports hardware
flow control and the console port does not. Flow control paces the transmission of data between a
sending device and a receiving device. Flow control ensures that the receiving device can absorb the data
sent to it before the sending device sends more. When the buffers on the receiving device are full, a

Chapter 2
Preparing to Install the Router
Console and Auxiliary Port Considerations
message is sent to the sending device to suspend transmission until the data in the buffers has been
processed. Because the auxiliary port supports flow control, it is ideally suited for use with the
high-speed transmissions of a modem. Console terminals transmit at slower speeds than modems;
therefore, the console port is ideally suited for use with console terminals.
Note
Console and rollover cables are not included with the MWR 1941-DC router. You can order the console
cable from Cisco Systems (PN ACS-1900ASYN=). You must supply your own rollover cable.
Console Port Connections
The router includes an EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous serial console port (RJ-45). Depending on the cable
and the adapter used, this port will appear as a data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communications
equipment (DCE) device at the end of the cable.
To connect an ASCII terminal to the console port, use the RJ-45 rollover cable with the female
RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter (labeled TERMINAL). To connect a PC running terminal emulation software
to the console port, use the RJ-45 rollover cable with the female RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter (labeled
TERMINAL). The default parameters for the console port are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 2
stop bits. The console port does not support hardware flow control. For detailed information about
installing a console terminal, see the “Connecting the Console Terminal and Modem” section on
page 3-3.
For cable and port pinouts, see the online document Cisco Modular Access Router Cable Specifications.
This document is located on the Documentation CD-ROM that accompanied your router, and on
Cisco.com.
Auxiliary Port Connections
The router includes an EIA/TIA-232 asynchronous serial auxiliary port (RJ-45) that supports flow
control. Depending on the cable and the adapter used, this port will appear as a DTE or DCE device at
the end of the cable.
To connect a modem to the auxiliary port, use the RJ-45 rollover cable with the male RJ-45-to-DB-25
adapter (labeled MODEM). For detailed information about connecting devices to the auxiliary port, see
the “Connecting the Console Terminal and Modem” section on page 3-3.
For cable and port pinouts, see the online document Cisco Modular Access Router Cable Specifications.

To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network
voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some
LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. To see translations of the warnings that appear in this
publication, refer to the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information document that accompanied
this device.
Ethernet Connections
The IEEE has established Ethernet as standard IEEE 802.3. The most common Ethernet implementations
are as follows:
•
100BASE-T—2-pair Category 5 or unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) straight-through RJ-45 cable.
•
10BASE-2—Ethernet on thin coaxial cable, also known as thin Ethernet. The maximum segment
distance is 607 feet (186 meters).
•
10BASE-5—Ethernet on thick coaxial cable, also known as thick Ethernet. The maximum segment
distance is 1,640 feet (500 meters).
•
10BASE-T—Ethernet on unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable. The maximum segment distance is
328 feet (100 meters). UTP cables look like the wiring used for ordinary telephones; however, UTP
cables meet certain electrical standards that telephone cables do not meet.
Refer to theAppendix B, “Cable Specifications” for information about Ethernet cables, connectors, and
pinouts.

Serial Connections
Serial connections are provided by WAN interface cards and network modules. For more information on
WAN interface cards, refer to the Cisco Interface Cards Installation Guide. For more information on
network modules, refer to the Cisco Network Modules Hardware Installation Guide. These documents
are accessible online and on the Cisco Documentation CD-ROM.
Before you connect a device to a serial port, you need to know the following:
•
Type of device, data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communications equipment (DCE), you are
connecting to the synchronous serial interface
•
Type of connector, male or female, required to connect to the device
•
Signaling standard required by the device
Configuring Serial Connections
The serial ports on the asynchronous/synchronous serial network modules and the serial WAN interface
card use DB-60 connectors. Serial ports can be configured as DTE or DCE, depending on the serial cable
used.
Serial DTE or DCE Devices
A device that communicates over a synchronous serial interface is either a DTE or DCE device. A DCE
device provides a clock signal that paces the communications between the device and the router. A DTE
device does not provide a clock signal. DTE devices usually connect to DCE devices. The documentation
that accompanied the device should indicate whether it is a DTE or DCE device. (Some devices have a
jumper to select either DTE or DCE mode.) Table 2-1 lists typical DTW and DCE devices.

Preparing to Connect to a Network
Signaling Standards Supported
The synchronous serial ports available for the router support the following signaling standards:
EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-449, V.35, X.21, and EIA-530. You can order a Cisco DB-60 shielded serial
transition cable that has the appropriate connector for the standard you specify. The documentation for
the device you want to connect should indicate the standard used for that device. The router end of the
shielded serial transition cable has a DB-60 connector, which connects to the DB-60 port on a serial
WAN interface card. The other end of the serial transition cable is available with a connector appropriate
for the standard you specify.
The synchronous serial port can be configured as DTE or DCE, depending on the attached cable (except
EIA-530, which is DTE only). To order a shielded cable, contact customer service. See the “Obtaining
Technical Assistance” section on page xiii.
Note
All serial ports configured as DTE require external clocking from a CSU/DSU or other DCE device.
Although manufacturing your own serial cables is not recommended (because of the small size of the
pins on the DB-60 serial connector), cable pinouts are provided in Appendix B, “Cable Specifications.”
Distance Limitations
Serial signals can travel a limited distance at any given bit rate; generally, the slower the data rate, the
greater the distance. All serial signals are subject to distance limits, beyond which a signal significantly
degrades or is completely lost.
Note
Only the serial WAN interface card supports bit rates above 128 Kbps.
Table 2-2 lists the recommended maximum speeds and distances for each serial interface type; however,
you might get good results at speeds and distances greater than those listed, if you understand the
electrical problems that might arise and can compensate for them. For instance, the recommended
maximum rate for V.35 is 2 Mbps, but 4 Mbps is commonly used.

Cisco Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide
If there are modules, interface cards, or power supplies to be removed or installed, Cisco suggests that
you perform the installation or removal before you install the chassis. If a chassis cover needs to be
removed, the chassis may have to be removed from the rack to permit cover removal.
Rack Mounting the Chassis
You can mount the Cisco MWR 1941-DC router in a 19-inch rack that conforms to EIA-310-D
specification (the inside width of the rack should be 17.72 to 17.80 inches per the EIA-310-D
specification). The MWR 1941-DC router requires this minimum width and occupies 1U (1.75 inches)
of vertical space.
Warning
To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special
precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure
your safety:
•
This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
•
When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest
component at the bottom of the rack.
•
If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the
rack
Attaching the Brackets
Attach the mounting brackets to the chassis as shown, using the screws provided in the bracket kit.
Attach the second bracket to the opposite side of the chassis. Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to
install the bracket screws.
Three screws are required on each side. Figure 3-1 shows how the bracket is attached.

Connecting the Console Terminal and Modem
This section describes how to connect a console terminal and a modem to the router. You can connect
only a terminal to the console port. Use the auxiliary port with a terminal or a modem for remote access
to the router.
These ports provide administrative access to your router either locally (with a console terminal) or
remotely (with a modem).
Identifying a Rollover Cable
Use a rollover cable to connect to the asynchronous serial console and auxiliary ports. You can identify
a rollover cable by comparing the two modular ends of the cable. Holding the cables side-by-side, with
the tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should be the same color
as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug. (See Figure 3-2.) If your cable came
from Cisco, pin 1 will be white on one connector, and pin 8 will be white on the other (a rollover cable
reverses pins 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5).

Connecting the VWIC Interface Cables
How you connect the ports of the T1/E1 Multiflex VWIC depends on whether you are using the
MWR 1941-DC router in a redundant (IP-RAN implementations only) or a non-redundant configuration.
For redundant configurations, use a Y-cable (as described in Y-Cable Specifications, page 3-7).
Note
HSRP and the Y-cable mode must be configured for redundancy to allow one router to become active
(CD LED on, AL LED off) and the other to become the standby CD LED off, AL LED on due to no
framing). For more information, see the MWR 1941-DC Software Configuration Guide.
Step 1
Confirm that both routers are turned off.
Step 2
Connect the end of one of the Y-cable stubs to the T1 or E1 port on the card on the first router.
Step 3
Connect the end of the other Y-cable stub to the T1 or E1 port (using the same type of port as in Step 2)
on the card in the second router.
Step 4
Connect the other end of the Y-cable to the BTS patch or demarcation panel at your site.
Step 5
Turn on power to the routers.
Step 6
Check that the CD LEDs goes on, which means that the cards’ internal CSU/DSU is communicating
with the CSU/DSU at the T1 or E1 service provider central office.
For non-redundant configurations, use a straight-through, shielded RJ-48C-to-RJ-48C cable.
Note
If you choose to use the T1/E1 Multiflex VWIC in a non-redundant configuration, you must close
the relays on the card using the standalone subcommand. For more information, see the
Cisco MWR 1941-DC Software Configuration Guide.
Step 1
Confirm that the router is turned off.
Step 2
Connect one end of the cable to the T1 or E1 port on the card.
Step 3
Connect the other end to the BTS patch or demarcation panel at your site.

Y-Cable Specifications
Although it can be used in a standalone MWR 1941-DC router, the T1/E1 Multiflex VWIC is designed
to be used in redundant configurations in an IP-RAN implementation. Such configurations require a
special Y-cable for connecting the active and standby routers. The Y-cable provides a dual E1 or T1 PRI
connection.
This section describes the specifications of the Y-cable used in redundant configurations in an IP-RAN
implementation.
•
T1/E1 Multiflex VWIC Y-cables should be made with 4 twisted-pair, shielded, 28-gauge cables.
•
The cable length of each stub (from the RJ-48C connector to the junction point) should not exceed
3 inches (76 mm).

All signals that propagate in the same direction must share the same twisted pair. For example, RX
TIP and RX RING must form a single twisted pair.
•
All unused twisted pairs should be cut flush on both ends of the cable. Any unused wire in a twisted
pair where one wire is in use should be cut flush at both ends.
Connecting the WIC-2A/S Interface Cables
This section describes how to connect the 2-port asynchronous/synchronous (A/S) serial modules
(WIC-2A/S) when using with the MWR 1941-DC router in a Cell Site DCN implementation.
The 2-port A/S serial module has “smart” serial ports. The serial cable attached to one of the module's
ports can determine the electrical interface type and mode (DTE or DCE).
Six types of serial cables (also called serial adapter cables or serial transition cables) are available from
Cisco Systems for use with the 2-port A/S serial module:
•
EIA/TIA-232 serial cable assembly
•
EIA/TIA-449 serial cable assembly
•
V.35 serial cable assembly
•
X.21 serial cable assembly
•
EIA/TIA-530 serial cable assembly
•
EIA/TIA-530A serial cable assembly
All serial cables have a universal plug at the interface module end. The network end of each cable
provides the physical connectors that are most commonly used for the interface. For example, the
network end of the EIA/TIA-232 serial cable is a DB-25 connector, which is the most widely used
EIA/TIA-232 connector.
All serial interface types, except EIA-530, are available in DTE or DCE mode: DTE with a plug
connector at the network end and DCE with a receptacle at the network end. The V.35 assembly is
available in either mode with either gender at the network end. The EIA/TIA-530 assembly is available
in DTE only.
After you install the 2-port A/S serial module, use the appropriate serial cable to connect the serial port
on the module to one of the following types of equipment (see Figure 3-5):
•
Synchronous modem
•
DSU/CSU
•
Other DCE, if connecting to a digital WAN line

Formatting Procedures for CF Memory Cards
For the Cisco MWR 1941-DC router, Cisco recommends that you format/erase new CF memory cards
to initialize them with a Class C Flash file system. This ensures proper formatting and enables the ROM
monitor to recognize and boot the Flash.
The Class C Flash file system is similar to the standard DOS file system; however, a CF memory card
formatted with the standard DOS file system does not support booting from the ROM monitor.
Formatting CF Memory as a DOS File System
To format a new external CF memory card, or to remove the files from a previously installed external CF
memory card, enter the format slot0: command.
The following example shows output for formatting a CF memory card formatted with a Class C Flash
file system:
Router# format slot0:
Format operation may take a while. Continue? [confirm]
Format operation will destroy all data in "slot0:". Continue? [confirm]

Troubleshooting
Your Cisco MWR 1941-DC router goes through extensive testing before leaving the factory. If you
encounter problems, use the information in this appendix to help isolate problems or to eliminate the
router as the source of the problem.
This appendix contains the following sections:
•
Problem Solving, page A-1
•
Reading the LEDs, page A-4
If you cannot locate the source of the problem, contact a customer service representative for information
on how to proceed. For technical support information, see the Cisco Information Packet publication that
shipped with your router. Before you call, have the following information ready:
•
Chassis type and serial number
•
Maintenance agreement or warranty information
•
Type of software and version number
•
Date you received the new chassis
•
Brief description of the problem
•
Brief explanation of the steps you have taken to isolate the problem
Problem Solving
The key to problem solving is to isolate the problem to a specific subsystem by comparing what the
router is doing to what it should be doing.
The LEDs on the front panel of the router enable you to determine router performance and operation.
For a description of these LEDs, see Reading the LEDs, page A-4.
When problem solving, consider the following router subsystems:
•
Power and cooling systems—External power source, power cable, router power supply and circuit
breaker, and router blower and fan. Also consider inadequate ventilation or air circulation.
•
Modules—LEDs on the modules help identify a failure.
•
Cables—External cables that connect the router to the network.

Troubleshooting the Power and Cooling Systems
Both the power LED and the fans can help you troubleshoot a power problem. Check the following items
to help isolate the problem:
Check the following items to help isolate problems with the power supply installation:
•
With the MWR 1941-DC router connected to the power source, is the power LED on the front panel
on?
– If not, check the DC input, DC source, and the power supply wiring.
– Check the power supply connection to the motherboard.
– If the power LED is still off, the problem might be a power supply failure.
•
Does the router shut down after being on a short time?
– Check the fans. If the fans are not working, the router will overheat and shut itself down.
– If the fans are not working, check the power supply connections to the fans.
– Ensure that the chassis intake and exhaust vents are clear.
Check the environmental site requirements in the “System Specifications” section on page 1-9.
•
Does the router partially boot, but the LEDs do not go on?
– Check for a power supply failure by inspecting the power LED on the front panel of the router.
If the power LED is on, the power supply is functional.
– If the power LED is not on, refer to the Cisco Information Packet for warranty information or
contact customer service.
Environmental Reporting Features
The MWR 1941-DC router has a temperature sensor to detect over-temperature conditions inside the
chassis. The over-temperature detection trips at 75°C +/- 5%. This condition is reported to the processor
as an interrupt and software then takes action on this interrupt to generate the appropriate alarming. If
the router reaches a temperature of 90°C, the power supply will cycle to prevent the box from exceeding
that temperature in a powered up state.
If the router is operating at an abnormally high temperature, you see the following message on the
console screen:
%SYS-1-OVERTEMP: System detected OVERTEMPERATURE condition. Please resolve cooling problem
immediately!
Some causes of abnormally high router temperature are:
•
Fan failure
•
Air conditioner failure in the room
•
Air blockage to cooling vents
Take steps to correct the problem. For information about environmental operating conditions, see
“System Specifications” section on page 1-9.

You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the modular plugs at the two ends of the cable. When
you hold the plugs side by side, with the tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of
the left plug should be the same color as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug.
(See Figure B-2.) If you purchased your cable from Cisco Systems, pin 1 is white on one connector, and
pin 8 is white on the other (a rollover cable connects pins 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5).

This section provides information about the 1-port serial WAN interface card. With the appropriate serial
transition cable, this card can provide an EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-449, V.35, X.21, DTE/DCE, EIA-530
DTE, or NRZ/NRZI serial interface.

Serial Connection Signals and Pinouts
Types of Serial Cables
Six types of serial cables (also called serial adapter cables or serial transition cables) are available from
Cisco Systems:
•
EIA/TIA-232 Interface
•
EIA/TIA-449 Interface
•
V.35 Interface
•
X.21 Serial Cable Assembly
•
EIA-530 Interface
All serial cables provide a universal plug at the interface card end. The network end of each cable
provides the physical connectors most commonly used for the interface. For example, the network end
of the EIA/TIA-232 serial cable is a DB-25 connector, the most widely used EIA/TIA-232 connector.
All serial interface types except EIA-530 are available in DTE or DCE format: DTE with a plug
connector (male) at the network end and DCE with a receptacle (female) 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.
Connecting the Card to the Network
Note
The serial WAN interface card uses a universal high-density, 60-pin receptacle. Each universal port
requires a serial port adapter cable that determines the port’s electrical interface type and mode: DTE or
DCE. Although all port adapter cables use a universal plug at the quad serial module end, the network
end of each cable type uses the physical connectors commonly used for the interface. (For example, the
network end of the EIA/TIA-232 port adapter cable is a DB-25 connector, the most widely used
EIA/TIA-232 connector.)
After you install the serial WAN interface card, use the appropriate serial cable to connect the interface
card’s DB-60 serial port to one of the following types of equipment:
•
An asynchronous modem, if connecting to an analog telephone line
•
A synchronous modem, data service unit/channel service unit (DSU/CSU), or other data
circuit-terminating equipment (DCE), if connecting to a digital WAN line
EIA/TIA-232 Interface
This section contains the following topics:

EIA/TIA-232 Connections
EIA/TIA-232 supports unbalanced circuits at signal speeds up to 64 kbps. The network end of the
adapter cable is a standard 25-pin D-shell connector known as a DB-25. (See Figure B-7.) The router
console and auxiliary ports also use EIA/TIA-232 connections; however, the serial module ports support
synchronous connections, and the console and auxiliary ports support asynchronous connections.

EIA/TIA-449 Interface
This section contains the following topics:
•
EIA/TIA-449 Connections
•
EIA/TIA-449 Serial Cable Assembly
EIA/TIA-449 Connections
EIA/TIA-449, which supports balanced (EIA/TIA-422) and unbalanced (EIA/TIA-423) transmissions,
is a faster (up to 2 Mbps) version of EIA/TIA-232 that provides more functions and supports
transmissions over greater distances.
The EIA/TIA-449 standard was intended to replace the EIA/TIA-232 standard, but it was not widely
adopted primarily because of the large installed base of DB-25 hardware and because of the larger size
of the 37-pin EIA/TIA-449 connectors, which limited the number of connections possible (fewer than
possible with the smaller, 25-pin EIA/TIA-232 connector).

X.21 Serial Cable Assembly
X.21 Connections
The X.21 interface uses a 15-pin connection for balanced circuits and is commonly used in the United
Kingdom to connect public data networks. X.21 relocates some of the logic functions to the DTE and
DCE interfaces and, as a result, requires fewer circuits and a smaller connector than EIA/TIA-232.
The network end of the X.21 adapter cable is a standard DB-15 connector. (See Figure B-13.)
X.21 cables are available as either DTE (DB-15 plug) or DCE (DB-15 receptacle).

EIA-530 Serial Cable Assembly
EIA-530 Connections
EIA-530, which supports balanced transmission, provides the increased functionality, speed, and
distance of EIA/TIA-449 on the smaller DB-25 connector used for EIA/TIA-232, instead of the 37-pin
connectors used for EIA/TIA-449. Like EIA/TIA-449, EIA-530 refers to the electrical specifications of
EIA/TIA-422 and EIA/TIA-423. Although the specification recommends a maximum speed of 2 Mbps,
EIA-530 is used successfully at 4 Mbps or faster speeds over short distances.
The EIA-530 adapter cable is available in DTE mode only. The network end of the EIA-530 adapter
cable is a standard DB-25 plug commonly used for EIA/TIA-232 connections. Figure B-15 shows the
DB-25 connector at the network end of the adapter cable.

Figure B-16 shows the EIA-530 serial cable assembly, and Table B-16 lists the pinout. Arrows indicate
signal direction: —> means DTE to DCE and <— means DCE to DTE.
The EIA-530 interface cannot be operated in DCE mode, and no DCE cable is available for it.

Smart Serial Connection Signals and Pinouts
The Smart Serial cable interface supports two independent serial interface ports. Each port supports six
types of serial interfaces: EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-449, X.21, V.35 in both DTE and DCE modes, and
EIA530/EIA530A in DTE mode. The serial end of the Smart Serial cable is a 26-pin connector. These
cables are used with the 2-port serial and 2-port asynchronous/synchronous WAN interface cards.
Figure B-17 shows the serial transition cables you can connect to the DB-60 port on the
asynchronous/synchronous serial modules and serial WAN interface card.
