It can be a standard ASCII terminal with an RS232 serial port, or more commonly, a PC.
Step2 Connect the console cable.
Power down the router and the console terminal, connect the RS232 serial port on the console terminal
to the console port on the router through the console cable.
Verify the connection and power up the devices. The console terminal shows the startup information of
the router if the connection is correct.
Fixed Interfaces
Ethernet Interface
Ethernet interface
MSR 30 provide fixed Ethernet interfaces, the MSR 30-1X provide two fixed FE interfaces, the MSR 30-20
provides two fixed GE interfaces and the MSR 30-40/30-60 provides two fixed Combo interfaces. In
addition, the MSR 30-20/30-40/30-60 provides SIC and DSIC slots. The MSR 30-11/30-16/30-20
provides MIM slots and the MSR 30-40/30-60 provides MIM slots and DMIM slots. The MSR
30-10/30-11 provides one XMIM slot. These SIC and MIM slots can expand Ethernet interface card and
interface module. For the expansion rules, refer to MSR Series Routers Interface Module Manual. The
following table describes Ethernet interface attributes.

Attribute Description
Connector RJ-45
Interface MDI/MDIX autosensing
Frame format
Ethernet_II
Ethernet_SNAP
Operating mode
10/100/1000 Mbps autosensing (10/100 Mbps autosensing for FEs)

NOTE:
MDI (Media Dependent Interface) is a typical type of Ethernet interface provided by network adapters.
MDIX is crossover media-dependent interface, which is commonly found on a Hub or LAN switch.
Ethernet cable
1. Electrical Ethernet interface cable
Ethernet interfaces usually use category 5 twisted pair cables, as shown in the following figure:
