Connecting I/O Controller, NPE-G1, or NPE-G2 Cables
The Cisco 7200 VXR routers ship with a roll-over cable. Connection to a terminal or a modem will
require an RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter, and possibly a DB-25-to-DB9 adapter. Refer to
cable and adapter configurations that can be used to connect terminals and modems to the Cisco 7200
VXR routers.
