Solved: How to connect 2 routers

denis.ivitchev · ‎06-22-2005

Hello,

I have 2 routers - one for local office and the other for remote office. They will be connected via T1 when it's installed. Now, I configured them both (1700 and 2600), and they both have DSU/CSU cards just like this one: http://www.tancom.com/cisco/product.asp/id.6028760A-AE37-4A49-86DF-822B59CE504B/family.B3B71D19-4FF9-48A8-A9F5-D470AFA55C93.

My question is: would it be possible to connect these two routers via WICs to test the connectivity between. Basically, simulate as if they're connected via T1. And if yes, how? What kind of a cable would I need.

Thank you for any help,

Denis

Hello Denis,

yes, you need to have an RJ-45 T1 crossover cable, check the link below for a schematic drawing of such a cable. Basically, the pinouts are as following:

1-5

2-4

4-2

5-1
