Where can I order cables for connecting a Cisco 2900 LRE XL switch, a Cisco 575 LRE CPE, and a Cisco 48 POTS Splitter?
A. You can order cables from your cable vendor or from your Cisco sales representative. Connecting the LRE port to a patch panel or POTS splitter requires a male-to-male RJ-21 cable. Cisco offers two types of cables. Each type provides the same functionality but with a different form factor. The Cisco part numbers for the LRE cables listed in the Catalyst 2900 Series XL Hardware Installation Guide are incorrect. The correct part numbers, documented in Release Notes for the Catalyst 2900 Series XL and Catalyst 3500 Series XL Switches, Cisco IOS Release 12.0(5.4)WC(1), are: • CAB-5-M120M120-5= (Category 5 cable with two 120-degree male-to-male RJ-21 connectors) • CAB-5-M180M120-5= (Category 5 cable with one 180-degree and one 120-degree male-to-male RJ-21 connector) Depending on the model of the switch, you can connect the LRE port to either 12 or 24 Cisco 575 LRE CPE devices through a patch panel. If no other telephone services use the same wiring as LRE traffic, the LRE switch connects
