Safety Information
Warning See the Cisco MC3810 Series
Multiservice Access Concentrators
Hardware Installation Guide for safety
information you need to know before
working on the Cisco MC3810.
Desktop Installation
Caution If you place the Cisco MC3810
on a desktop, do not place anything that
weighs more than 10 pounds
(4.5 kilograms) on top of the chassis.
Caution Do not remove the rubber feet.
They provide a space for air circulation.
Rack-Mounting the Chassis
Step 1 Choose one of the methods shown in the
above figure, and attach the mounting
brackets as shown.
Note: Brackets are included. Screws are included
for attaching the brackets to the chassis, but not for
installing the chassis in a rack. You need four
additional screws to install the chassis in a rack.
Step 2 Install the chassis in the rack.

Wall-Mounting the Chassis
Step 1 Install the smaller brackets as shown in
the figure above.
Step 2 Attach the chassis to the wall.
• Positiontheendnearestthepower cable
at the top
• Align screws with a wall stud, or use
wall anchors
Note: Screws for attaching the chassis to a wall are
not included. You need to provide four screws
suitable for your wall installation.
Caution Do not remove the rubber feet.
They provide a space for air circulation.

Identifying Cable Types
8-Conductor Rollover Cable
Hold the connectors side-by-side, with the tab at the
back. The colored wires are in the opposite sequence
atoppositeendsof thecable. Ifyourcablecamefrom
Cisco Systems, pin 1 is white on one plug, and pin 8
is white on the opposite plug. (A rollover cable
reverses the wire connections at the opposite ends:
1to8,2to7,3to6,4to5,5to4,6to3,7to2,and
8 to 1.)
8-Conductor Straight-Through Cable
Hold the connectors side-by-side, with the tab at the
back. The colored wires are in the same sequence at
opposite ends of the cable. (A straight-through cable
connectslike-numbered pinsatoppositeends: 1 to1,
2to2,3to3,4to4,5to5,6to6,7to7,and8to8.)
RJ-48 T1/E1 Cable
Viewtheconnector fortheCiscoMC3810port,with
the tab at the back. There are wires attached to four
ofthe pins: 1, 2, 4, and5.(Thepinoutatthe opposite
end depends on the interface at that end.)

Connecting the T1/E1 Trunk
Port to the Network
If you are using a T1/E1 network interface, connect
the T1/E1 trunk port to a network demarcation
device.
If the trunk port has an RJ-48 jack, use an RJ-48
straight-through cable (not included), or a special
cable if required for your application.
If the trunk port has BNC connectors, use two
75-ohm coaxial cables with BNC connectors (not
included).
Note: The T1/E1 trunk port, when present, has a
built-in CSU/DSU for connection to a service
provider’s network interface.
Step 1 For an RJ-48 cable—Connect one end of
the cable to the RJ-48 jack labeled T1/E1
on a light-green background.
For coaxial cables—Connect one end of
the cables to the BNC connectors labeled
E1 on a light-green background.
Note: Be sure to make the correct transmit and
receive connections for both 75-ohm cables.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the cable(s) to
the network demarcation device (telco
demarc or equivalent).

ConnectingtheBRIS/TBackup
Port to the Network
If your Cisco MC3810 supports BRI S/T backup,
connect the BRI S/T backup port to the ISDN
network.
Use an 8-conductor straight-through cable (not
included).
Step 1 Connect one end of the cable to the port
labeled BRI 0 S/T on an orange
background.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the cable to the
S/T interface of the NT1.
Step 3 If the NT1 is not already connected to the
ISDN network, connect the U interface of
the NT1 to the ISDN wall jack
(U interface).
Note: Step 3 should only be necessary in locations
wheretheU interface is accessible to the user, such as
in the United States.

Connecting Synchronous
Serial Ports
You can connect the serial 0 port to a Frame Relay
network or to user equipment.
You can connect the serial 1 port to user equipment.
Use one of the Cisco serial transition cables (not
included). Select the cable to match both of the
following parameters:
• Signaling protocol:
—EIA/TIA-232
—EIA/TIA-449
—V.35
—X.21
—EIA-530
• Cisco MC3810 serial port operating mode:
—DTE
—DCE
See the Cisco MC3810 Series Multiservice Access
Concentrators Hardware Installation Guide for
information about selecting these cables.
Note: Both serial ports are dark blue.
Step 1 Connectthe60-pin connector of the serial
transition cable to the Cisco MC3810
serial port to be used for this interface.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the serial
transition cable to the CSU/DSU,
synchronous modem, or video codec.

Connecting the Ethernet Port
for LAN Access
If you are using a 10BaseT Ethernet LAN, connect
the Ethernet 0 port to the Ethernet hub.
Use a standard, straight-through, 10BaseT Ethernet
cable (not included).
Step 1 Connect the cable to the Ethernet 0 port
(yellow).
Step 2 Connect the other end of the cable to an
Ethernet hub.
