Additional Required Equipment

Equipment

When You Use It

Ethernet hub

A hub connects pieces of network equipment (including the router)
to create a network. You can use a 10-, 100-, or 10/100-Mbps hub
with the router.

Ethernet switch

A switch connects pieces of network equipment (including the
router) to create a network. You can use a 10-, 100-, or 10/100-Mbps
switch with the router.

Phillips screwdriver

Although the WICs and VICs use thumbscrews, you might need a
Phillips screwdriver to loosen the WIC and VIC cover.

Cisco WIC

To make a WAN connection, the router must have a supported WIC
installed. The router supports up to two cards. You can either order
the cards when ordering the router, and they will be installed for
you, or you can order the cards separately, after receiving the router,
and install them yourself.
