Chassis Cable Ports
The router chassis has the following cable ports for router network and power cables:
• Door—Two cable ports on the front door, shown in Figure 2-2, provide support for third party radio
cabling. The router supports installation of a compatible radio, as described in Installing Non-Cisco
Modules.
• Base—Seven cable ports on the router base, shown in Figure 2-7, provide support for router
network cabling, as described in Installing the Router.
Cable Glands
A cable gland (also known as a cable connector) is required to install cables in the chassis cable ports.
Use a compatible cable gland to attach and secure the end of a cable to the router. The cable gland
provides cable strain relief and seals the cable entry into the router chassis to prevent damage to the
router interior.
