Connection Instructions:
1. Connect the power cable (known as the kettle lead) to the power-pack/transformer, and then connect this to the
router.
2. Should the router have a power switch, ensure it is turned on (the I is pressed down)
3. Connect a patch cable between the port marked GE WAN on the Cisco router and the provider/carrier NTE. The
actual NTE will vary between carriers and circuit types, however there should typically be a port/section called
“internal” or “local”, often with several ports bunched together. Do not connect to the port labelled FE or FE WAN
4. Connect a separate patch cable between any of the 8-port bank (marked LAN) on the Cisco router and the
customer switch. Should a switch not be required/installed, multiple devices may be plugged directly in these
ports (can be done at a later date if a migration from existing services is required)

Once connected, a call must be placed to the GCI Provisioning Team to ensure successful turn-up and test of the
circuit and router. Pleased ensure you have the description (including site name) from the white label a󰀩xed to the
router to hand.
The provisioning team can be reached on 01924 641 296 or 0844 443 3537 option 3
Failure to call in to have the router commissioned remotely, even if customer testing on site is successful may impact
your levels of ongoing support at this site.
