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 Ciscos 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 Ciscos 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.

Cisco 881-V, Cisco 887VA-V, and Cisco 887VA-V-W

Figure 1-15, Figure 1-16, and Figure 1-17 show the features available on the Cisco 881-V and
Cisco 887VA-V routers. The features available vary, depending on the router model. Some features may
not be available on your router.
The Cisco 881-V and Cisco 887VA-V voice and data series gives you the flexibility to use either FXS
or BRI voice ports. However, the number of concurrent calls that can be supported by the router is limited
by the codec complexity setting on the router. Table 1-7 lists the maximum number of calls that is
supported when the codec complexity command is configured for Flexible, Medium or High complexity.
Note Configuring the codec complexity setting to support secure calls uses DSP resources, but does not affect
the maximum number of supported calls.

Feature Summary
Kensington Lock
A Kensington security slot is located on the router back panel. To secure the router to a desktop or other
surface, use the Kensington lockdown equipment.
Reset Button
The Reset button is used to restore the router to the factory default configuration or to load a custom
configuration file.
There are two different ways to do this:
1. by pressing the Reset button within 5 seconds of powering up the router; or
2. by pressing the Reset button for 5 seconds while running IOS.
Note If you execute a CLI reboot command while the embedded wireless AP is running Cisco Unified IOS
software, the router reboots, but the AP continues running. Clients with Cisco Unified IOS software are
controlled by a wireless LAN controller (WLC) and can be reset only by the controller.
Cisco 860VAE RoutersCustom Configuration File

On Cisco 860VAE routers, the reset button can be used to load a custom configuration file without having
to use the CLI. The configuration file can be located on an external USB flash drive or on the router's
compact flash.
1-32 OL-16215-11
Hardware Features
The custom configuration file must be named one of the following:

customer-config
SN-customer-config
where SN is the unique hardware serial number.
When the system attempts to load a custom configuration file, configuration files on a USB flash drive
have priority over configuration files on the router's flash drive and the SN-customer-config file name
has priority over the customer-config file name. The priority for loading a configuration file is as
follows:
1. USB flash0: SN-customer-config
2. USB flash0: customer-config
3. Router flash: SN-customer-config
4. Router flash: customer-config
If the router does not find a valid custom configuration file, the system aborts the process.
To reset the router to the factory default configuration, follow these steps:
Step 1 Verify that IOS is running correctly by checking that the system status LED is on.
Step 2 Press and hold the Reset button until the system status LED begins to flash. Typically, this occurs within
5 seconds.
The router reloads itself after the startup configuration has been replaced with the new customer
configuration.
Custom Configuration File for Cisco 892FSP, 896VA, 897VA, and Cisco 898EA
For the first method, the configuration file can be located on the router's compact flash or on the router's
nvram. The custom configuration file must use cfg as the filename extension.
When the system attempts to load a custom configuration file, configuration files on nvram have priority
over configuration files on the router's compact flash.
The priority for loading a configuration file is as follows:
1. nvram: *.cfg
2. Router flash: *.cfg

configuration.
For the second method, the configuration file can be located on an external USB flash drive or on the
router's compact flash.
The custom configuration file must be named one of the following:
customer-config
customer-config.SN ?
where "SN" is the unique hardware serial number.
When the system attempts to load a custom configuration file, configuration files on a USB flash drive
have priority over configuration files on the router's flash drive and the "customer-config.SN" file name
has priority over the customer-config file name.
The priority for loading a configuration file is as follows:
1. usbflash0:customer-config.SN
2. usbflash0:customer-config
3. Router flash:customer-config.SN
4. Router flash:customer-config
To reset the router to the factory default configuration or to load a custom configuration file, follow these
steps:
Step 1 Verify that IOS is running correctly by checking that the system status LED is on.

Shared LEDs on the Cisco 881-V and Cisco 887VA-V Voice and Data Routers
On the Cisco 881-V, Cisco 887VA-V, and Cisco 887VA-V-W routers, the BRI1, BRI2 and the FXS ports
share LED indicators. The following ports share an LED indicator:
BRI 1B1 channel and FXS 3
BRI 1B2 channel and FSX 4
BRI 2B1 channel and FXS 5
BRI 2 B2 channel and FXS 6
1-40 OL-16215-11
Hardware Features
Because the LED indicators are shared, the LED illuminates (green) when either port is active. For
example, the LED indicator labeled BRI 1 B1 illuminates when either the BRI1 B1 channel is active or
when the FXS port is active. You can determine the activity status on each interface by using the
following commands.
For activity status on the FXS ports, use the show port summary command.
For activity status on the BRI ISDN port, use the show isdn status command.

Hardware Features
Fan
Some router models do not have a fan, while other models have either one or two fans.
The fans spin at full speed, as a diagnostic aid, immediately after the router is powered up. After the
router has booted, the fans spin as fast as necessary to minimize fan noise while maintaining a safe
internal operating temperature.
The following models have no fan:
Cisco 892FSP
Cisco 896VA
Cisco 897VA
Cisco 898EA
Power Supply
The Cisco 892FSP has a single +12V power supply input. The Cisco 892FSP power connector is
different from the barrel-type connector on other 890 series models. The AC adapter cable connector has
four pins and a built-in locking mechanism. Figure 3-27 shows the power adapter connector.
The Cisco 896VA, 897VA, and Cisco 898EA use PoE (12 VDC 43 W, -54 VDC 80 W) and non-PoE
(12 VDC 60 W) power supplies.
Power over Ethernet Module

The Cisco 880 series ISRs can include an optional Power over Ethernet (PoE) module that provides
power to 802.3af-compliant devices connected to FE ports 0 and 1.
The Cisco 890 series ISRs can include an optional PoE module that provides power to 802.3af-compliant
devices connected to FE ports 0, 1, 2, and 3.
The PoE module is an option available only for the Cisco 880 series and 890 series ISRs and requires a
48 V external power adapter.
This function can be added to an 880 or 890 series router by installing the PoE adapter card in the router
and inserting the PoE 48 V external power adapter.
Note The Cisco 880 series ISRs with embedded WLAN antennas require a single external power supply: a
30 W power supply for non-POE-enabled routers or a 60 W power supply for POE-enabled routers. For
the back panels of some of these routers, see Figure 1-19 and Figure 1-21.
The following PoE budget is available:

C867VAE-POE-W-A-K9: 15.4 W (one port PoE)
Cisco 880 series: 30.8 W (2 ports each 15.4 W)
Cisco 890 series: 61.6 W (4 ports each 15.4 W)

Hardware Features
3G Cellular Data WAN Connectivity

The 3G (Evolution Data Only [EVDO], Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems [UMTS])
cellular interface is intended for use as a backup data link, but it can also be used as a primary WAN data
link. The 3G technology is third-generation wide-area cellular technology that is used in voice telephony
and broadband wireless data in a mobile environment.
Some Cisco 880G models come with a 34-mm express card slot ready for use with a commercial 3G card
radio. The 3G express card slot is located on the front panel. For a list of supported 3G cards, see the
Cisco 880 Series Integrated Services Routers Data Sheet.
Other Cisco 880G models come with embedded WAN modems for use over GSM or CDMA networks.
These routers have antenna connectors on the back panel. GSM routers have two SIM card slots. For
information on configuring Cisco 880 series ISRs for 3G, see Configuring Cisco EHWIC and 880G for
3G (EV-DO Rev A) and Configuring Cisco EHWIC and 880G for 3.7G (HSPA+)/3.5G (HSPA).

Hardware Features
Wireless LAN Connectivity

The embedded Wi-Fi CERTIFIED, 802.11a/b/g/n-compliant wireless AP is preinstalled in the router
as an optional feature. The Cisco 860 series routers support autonomous features and network
configurations. The Cisco 880 series and 890 series routers support both autonomous and unified
features and network configurations.
The wireless AP does not have an external Console port. Use the routers Console port as described in
Chapter 3, Connecting a Terminal or PC to the Console Port. To configure the wireless device, use the
Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI).
Table 1-14 describes the radios and antennas for the Cisco 860 series, 880 series, and 890 series routers.
Note Cisco 860VAE ISRs do not support wireless LAN connectivity.
The 5-GHz radio operates in the Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) 1, 2, 3, 5-GHz

Note Antenna orientation can increase or decrease signal reception due to polarization. Typically, an SPs
transmitting antenna on the BTS is a vertically polarized omnidirectional antenna, which means the
electromagnetic waves are transmitted from it in a vertical plane. Hence, the receiving antenna needs to
be vertically oriented too in order to receive the best signal. As the angle of the antenna orientation is
changed from vertical to horizontal, only an angular component of the signal is picked up by the antenna.
Therefore, if the antenna orientation is horizontal, the antenna picks up the least signal. The signal is
received by the antenna as a result of it bouncing off of reflective surfaces. Hence, depending on where
the antenna is placed, it may receive different signal strengths. However, the recommended position is
vertical.

You can connect the Data BRI port to the ISDN service provider as a backup link to the WAN port in
case the primary xDSL (general term referring to various forms of DSL, including global industry
standard symmetrical high-speed DSL [G.SHDSL]) WAN service fails. The Data BRI connection is not
available on the third-generation (3G) models.
The cabling requirements for the ISDN S/T connection are as follows:
You must provide two unshielded Category 5 cables. The first cable connects the NT1 box to the
splitter, and the second cable connects the splitter to the wall jack.
There are RJ-45 connectors at both ends of the default orange ISDN S/T cable. However, an
RJ-45toRJ-11 ISDN S/T cable is available upon request if the wall jack at the site requires an
RJ-11 connector. Contact your router reseller for the appropriate cable.

Use a standard straight-through RJ-11 modular telephone cable to connect a Foreign Exchange Service
(FXS) port to a telephone or fax machine.
Warning This equipment contains a ring signal generator (ringer), which is a source of hazardous voltage. Do
not touch the RJ-11 (phone) port wires (conductors), the conductors of a cable connected to the RJ-11
port, or the associated circuit-board when the ringer is active. The ringer is activated by an incoming
call. Statement 1042
3-32 OL-16215-11
Warning For connections outside the building where the equipment is installed, the following ports must be
connected through an approved network termination unit with integral circuit protection: FXS.
Statement 1044
To connect the FXS line, follow these steps:
Step 1 Connect one end of the straight-through RJ-11 cable to the FXS port. Figure 3-30 shows an FXS line

Connecting a Voice ISDN BRI Line
Note If you have specified the use of a private line automatic ringdown (PLAR) off-premises extension (OPX)
connection mode for an FXO voice port (with loop resistance less than 8000 Ohm), you must ensure that
the soft-offhook option is enabled on the port.
This option allows a stepped offhook resistance during seizure, which avoids overloading the circuit
during offhook in the event that ringing voltage is present on the circuit at the same time as the trunk
seizure. The stepped offhook resistance is initially set to 800 Ohms, then adjusts to 50 Ohms when
ringing voltage is not present.
To enable the soft-offhook command on the port, and to access the connection command with plar opx
syntax, see the Cisco Command Lookup Tool.

Use a straight-through RJ-45 cable to connect the voice BRI port to the ISDN network through a
telephone outlet or other device.
Caution To prevent damage to the router, be sure to connect the BRI cable to the BRI connector only and not to
any other RJ-45 connector.
To connect the voice BRI line, follow these steps:
Step 1 Connect one end of a straight-through RJ-45toRJ-45 cable to the Voice BRI port.
Note When the interface is configured as NT and is connecting to a TE device, use a crossover cable.
See Table A-16.

Laser Safety Warnings
Optical SFPs use a small laser to generate the fiber-optic signal. Keep the optical transmit and receive
ports covered whenever a cable is not connected to the port.
Warning Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into
beams or view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051
Warning Do not stare into the laser beam. Statement 1010
Warning Invisible laser radiation present. Statement 1016
Statement 1040
Warning Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do
not view directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments
(for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm may pose an eye
hazard. Statement 1056
Warning Use of controls, adjustments, or performing procedures other than those specified may result in
hazardous radiation exposure. Statement 1057
OL-16215-11 3-37
Installing an SFP Module

To connect and secure the SFP module, follow these steps:
Step 1 Slide the SFP into the SFP port connector until it locks into position (see Figure 3-33).
Tip If the SFP uses a bale-clasp latch (see Figure 3-33), the handle should be on top of the SFP module.
Figure 3-33 Installing an SFP Module
94126
Caution Do not remove the optical port plugs from the SFP until you are ready to connect cabling.
Step 2 Connect the network cable to the SFP module.
Removing an SFP Module

Follow these steps to remove the SFP module from a Cisco 892F series router:
Step 1 Disconnect all cables from the SFP.
Warning Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into
beams or view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051
Caution The latching mechanism used on many SFPs locks the SFP into place when cables are connected. Do not
pull on the cabling in an attempt to remove the SFP.
Step 2 Disconnect the SFP latch. See Figure 3-34.
Note SFP modules use various latch designs to secure the module in the SFP port. Latch designs are not linked
to SFP model or technology type. For information on the SFP technology type and model, see the label
on the side of the SFP.
