The Cisco 1721 router supports one or two Cisco WAN interface cards (WICs).

Each card has one or two WAN ports. This section describes the general procedure

for installing a card in the Cisco 1721 router.

For details on specific WICs, how to connect the card to the WAN line, and

how to configure the interface with Cisco IOS software, refer to the

Cisco WAN Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide that came with the

card(s).

This section lists safety warnings that you should be aware of before installing

WICs in the router.

Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or replace

this equipment. (To see translated versions of this warning, refer to the

Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for Cisco 1700 Routers

document that came with the router.)

Before working on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove

jewelry (including rings, necklaces, and watches). Metal objects will heat

up when connected to power and ground and can cause serious burns or

weld the metal object to the terminals. (To see translated versions of this

warning, refer to the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for

Cisco 1700 Routers document that came with the router.)

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods

of lightning activity. (To see translated versions of this warning, refer to the
