Product Overview

Cisco 810 Series

The 3rd Generation (3G) is a generation of standards for mobile technology that facilitates growth,
increased in bandwidth, and supports more diverse applications.
The Cisco 812 ISR can be powered by an (included) external AC adapter or by a PoE+ capable Ethernet
source using an optional Cisco PoE splitter C810-POE-SPL.
A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) implements a flexible data communication system frequently
augmenting rather than replacing a wired LAN within a building or campus. WLANs use radio frequency

software runs on the first core. The second core runs the WLAN Access Point software.
If WLAN is not supported in an SKU, all 512 MB DRAM memory is allocated to the first core. For the
SKUs that support WLAN, 128 MB out of the 512 MB main memory is allocated to the second core.
If WLAN is not supported in an SKU, all 512 MB DRAM compact flash memory is allocated to the first
core. For the SKUs that support WLAN, 64 MB out of the 512 MB main memory is allocated to the
second core.

Power Supply
The following are power adapters supported in the Cisco 812 ISR:
•

AC Power Adapter, page 1-8

•

PoE+ Splitter, page 1-8

AC Power Adapter

The default configuration is AC adapter that supports up to 4 A of 5 VDC current. The supported AC
power adapter is PWR2-20W-AC that has a nominal input voltage of 100 to 240 VAC.
PoE+ Splitter

The Cisco PoE+ splitter (C810-POE-SPL) splits PoE+ into power and GE. It has connectors built into
the power supply at both input and output so cables can be used at desired length as an option. Figure 1-4

For compliance and safety information, see Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information Roadmap
that ships with the router and Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for Cisco 800 Series and
SOHO Series Routers.

General Description
The Cisco 819 Integrated Services Router, part of the Cisco Integrated Services Routers Generation 2
(ISR G2) Family designed in compact hardened and non-hardened form factors, is the smallest Cisco
IOS Software router with support for integrated fourth-generation (4G LTE) and third-generation (3G)
wireless WAN (mobile broadband backhaul). The 3G Cisco 819 now supports Dual 802.11 a/b/g/n radios
WiFi. The Cisco 819 ISR machine-to-machine gateway provides a rapidly deployable, highly available,
reliable, and secure solution into machine-to-machine applications for financial, telemetry, utility, retail,
industrial automation, and transportation with comprehensive management capability. Transparently
integrated into Cisco IOS Software as an enterprise-class feature, the Cisco 819 Hardened ISR provides
highly secure data, voice, and video communications to stationary and mobile network nodes across
wired and wireless links.
Available in both non-hardened (Cisco 819G) and hardened (Cisco 819HG) versions, the Cisco 819
supporting 4G LTE and 3G wireless WAN (WWAN) speeds offers a cost-effective, rapidly deployable,
reliable, and secure primary or backup solution. With support for industrial-grade components, the
hardened Cisco 819HG extends the ISR machine-to-machine gateway footprint and provides the
flexibility for deployment in many different stationary and mobile environments where space, heat
dissipation, exposure to extreme temperatures, harsher environments, and low power consumption are
critical factors. For mobile applications, Mobile IP delivers transparent roaming across multiple wireless
networks capable of covering wide geographic areas.
The Cisco 819 ISR is a standard form factor with a commercial operating range. The 3G Cisco 819 ISRs
support the 3G speeds (High-Speed PacketAccess Plus [HSPA+] enabling up to 4G speeds and Evolution
Data Optimized [EVDO Rev A]). They are backward-compatible with High-Speed Packet Access
(HSPA), Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service (UMTS), Enhanced Data Rates for Global
Evolution (EDGE), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), and EVDO Rev 0/1xRTT.
The 4G LTE C819 supports the latest Third-Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 8 LTE
standards. The Cisco 4G multimode LTE WWAN C819 provides persistent and reliable LTE connectivity
with fallback and transparent handoff to earlier technologies. The Cisco 819HG-4G and Cisco 819G-4G
support multimode 4G LTE and have embedded Sierra Wireless multimode modem.
The Cisco 819 ISR is a desktop form factor with built-in wall-mount features, floor mount, and DIN rail
mount features in selected SKUs. These routers are powered by an external AC power or optional DC
adapter. Figure 1-5 shows the Cisco 819HG ISR.
Beginning with IOS release 15.2(4)M1, the new 3G Cisco 819HGW and Cisco 819HWD ISRs support
WiFi radios with a higher memory density and a new barrel-type power connector. A Wireless Local
Area Network (WLAN) implements a flexible data communication system frequently augmenting rather

Product Overview
Cisco 810 Series

Antennas
The Cisco 819 3G routers provide two standard panel-mount TNC connectors to support the 3G antenna
and the diversity and GPS external antenna. The main antenna is used for the primary 3G antenna. The
second can be used as a diversity receive only 3G antenna or GPS antenna that does not require power
supply from the router.
The Cisco 819 4G routers provide two standard panel-mount TNC connectors on the router front panel
for the main and diversity antennas. The main antenna connector is used for the primary 4G antenna. The
second antenna connector can be used as a diversity receive only 4G antenna. An SMA connector for
active GPS antenna is also available on the front panel of the router.
The Cisco 819HGW and Cisco 819HWD ISRs also support Cisco WiFi external antennas. See the
“Supported Cisco Antennas and Cables” section on page 1-27 for more information.
WiFi External Antenna

The external WiFi antenna is used to support better WiFi coverage. All external antenna supports the
following:
•

Dual 802.11 a/b/g/n radios

•

2x3 MIMO

•

Omnidirectional

Power Switch
The power switch shuts down the router. A power switch lock is available to prevent accidental turning
off of the router in the hardened SKUs.

Reset Button
The Reset button resets the router configuration to the default configuration set by the factory. To restore
the router configuration to the default configuration set by the factory, use a standard size #1 paper clip
with wire gauge 0.033 inch or smaller and simultaneously press the reset button while applying power
to the router.

LEDs
The LEDs are located on the front panel of the router. Table 1-8 describes the 3G LEDs for the Cisco
819 ISR.

Power Supply
All SKUs require a 5 VDC power source. Cisco 819HG and Cisco 819G ISRs have a self-locking Molex
mini-fit connector. Cisco 819HGW and Cisco 819HWD ISRs use a 5.5 mm barrel-type connector with
separate locking clip. An external AC power adapter is supported by default. The optional external power
adapters are available to support a variety of DC power sources, suitable for fixed, vehicle, or railway
installations. The 5 VDC power input of the router is protected from over-voltage up to 20 VDC. The
router will not power up if excessive voltage (for example, a 12 VDC adapter) is connected.
AC Power Adapter

The default configuration includes an external AC adapter that supplies up to 20 W of power. The AC
power connection is a two-pin IEC 320 C8 receptacle. A mating AC power cord is supplied. The AC
adapter does not provide chassis grounding to the router. A 1.3-meter long output cable connects to the
router.
DC Power Adapters

The optional external DC power adapters are available for 12 VDC and 24 VDC nominal vehicle power.
•

12 VDC vehicle adapter has a 10 VDC to 36 VDC operating range

•

24 VDC vehicle adapter has an 18 VDC to 75 VDC operating range

isolation; the input negative is connected to the output negative (chassis ground). Input cable is 350
millimeter long with stripped and tinned bare wire connections. The input positive connection is a white
wire and the input negative is a black wire.

Note

The 24 VDC vehicle adapters will be available on Q1CY13.
Railway Power Adapters

The optional external power adapters meeting Railway Standards are available from a third-party
supplier, Martek Power. Contact Martek Power directly to order and for detailed specifications. The use
of Martek Power adapters listed in the “Supported Power Adapters” section on page A-9 will maintain
Cisco warranty and support of the router; the power adapter itself is covered by Martek warranty. Input
connection to the railway adapters is by a 350 millimeter long wire with stripped and tinned bare wire
connection. A 1.3-meter long output cable connects to the router.

1. Depending on the router model, the primary WAN port can be either G.SHDL or 10/100 FE.
2. FXS = Foreign Exchange Station.
3. DID = Direct Inward Dialing.
4. FXO = Foreign Exchange Office.
5. TBP = trunk bypass.
6. Ports 0 and 1 provide PoE with the optional PoE module installed.
7. The Cisco 880 series ISRs can include an optional PoE module that provides power to 802.3af-compliant devices connected
to ethernet ports 0 and 1. If this feature was not configured with the factory order, you must order and install the Field
Replaceable Unit (FRU) to enable the PoE function. For this you either need the FRU “800-IL-PM=2” or “800G2-POE-2”.
If your device has a separate PoE inlet, use the 800-IL-PM=2, if it has one combined inlet (a description saying “POE
OPTION REQUIRES 5A POWER ADAPTOR”), then use the 800G2-POE-2.

OPTION REQUIRES 5A POWER ADAPTOR”), then use the 800G2-POE-2.

The primary WAN port on all 888E models is designed for an RJ-45 connector only. Damage to the
primary WAN port may occur if a non-RJ-45 connector is inserted.

Cisco 881-V, Cisco 887VA-V, and Cisco 887VA-V-W
Figure 1-25, Figure 1-26, and Figure 1-27 show the features available on the Cisco 881-V and
Cisco 887VA-V routers. The features available vary, depending on the router model. Some features may
not be available on your router.
The Cisco 881-V and Cisco 887VA-V voice and data series gives you the flexibility to use either FXS
or BRI voice ports. However, the number of concurrent calls that can be supported by the router is limited
by the codec complexity setting on the router. Table 1-26 lists the maximum number of calls that is
supported when the codec complexity command is configured for Flexible, Medium or High complexity.

Feature Summary

Kensington Lock
A Kensington security slot is located on the router back panel. To secure the router to a desktop or other
surface, use the Kensington lockdown equipment.

Reset Button
The Reset button is used to restore the router to the factory default configurationor to load a custom
configuration file.
There are two different ways to do this:

Note

1.

by pressing the Reset button within 5 seconds of powering up the router; or

2.

by pressing the Reset button for 5 seconds while running IOS.

If you execute a CLI reboot command while the embedded wireless AP is running Cisco Unified IOS
software, the router reboots, but the AP continues running. Clients with Cisco Unified IOS software are
controlled by a wireless LAN controller (WLC) and can be reset only by the controller.

Cisco 860VAE Routers—Custom Configuration File
On Cisco 860VAE routers, the reset button can be used to load a custom configuration file without having
to use the CLI. The configuration file can be located on an external USB flash drive or on the router's
compact flash.
The custom configuration file must be named one of the following:
•

customer-config

•

SN-customer-config
where “SN” is the unique hardware serial number.

When the system attempts to load a custom configuration file, configuration files on a USB flash drive
have priority over configuration files on the router's flash drive and the “SN-customer-config” file name
has priority over the “customer-config” file name. The priority for loading a configuration file is as
follows:
1.

USB flash0: SN-customer-config

2.

USB flash0: customer-config

3.

Router flash: SN-customer-config

4.

Router flash: customer-config

If the router does not find a valid custom configuration file, the system aborts the process.

To reset the router to the factory default configuration, follow these steps:
Step 1

Verify that IOS is running correctly by checking that the system status LED is on.

Cisco Integrated Services Router Hardware Installation Guide
OL-27407-01

1-77

Chapter 1

Product Overview

Cisco C891 Series ISRs

Step 2

Press and hold the Reset button until the system status LED begins to flash. Typically, this occurs within
5 seconds.
The router reloads itself after the startup configuration has been replaced with the new customer
configuration.

Custom Configuration File for Cisco 892FSP, 896VA, 897VA, and Cisco 898EA
For the first method, the configuration file can be located on the router's compact flash or on the router's
nvram. The custom configuration file must use cfg as the filename extension.
When the system attempts to load a custom configuration file, configuration files on nvram have priority
over configuration files on the router's compact flash.
The priority for loading a configuration file is as follows:
1.

nvram: *.cfg

2.

Router flash: *.cfg

If the router does not find a valid custom configuration file, the system aborts the process.

To reset the router to the factory default configuration or to load a custom configuration file, follow these
steps:
Step 1

Turn the power on.

Step 2

Press and hold the Reset button until the system status LED begins to flash. Typically, this occurs within
5 seconds.
The router reloads itself after the startup configuration has been replaced with the new customer
configuration.

For the second method, the configuration file can be located on an external USB flash drive or on the
router's compact flash.
The custom configuration file must be named one of the following:
•

customer-config

•

customer-config.SN ?
where "SN" is the unique hardware serial number.

When the system attempts to load a custom configuration file, configuration files on a USB flash drive
have priority over configuration files on the router's flash drive and the "customer-config.SN" file name
has priority over the customer-config file name.
The priority for loading a configuration file is as follows:
1.

usbflash0:customer-config.SN

2.

usbflash0:customer-config

3.

Router flash:customer-config.SN

4.

Router flash:customer-config

If the router does not find a valid custom configuration file, the system aborts the process.
To reset the router to the factory default configuration or to load a custom configuration file, follow these
steps:
Step 1

Verify that IOS is running correctly by checking that the system status LED is on.

Step 2

Because the LED indicators are shared, the LED illuminates (green) when either port is active. For
example, the LED indicator labeled BRI 1 B1 illuminates when either the BRI1 B1 channel is active or
when the FXS port is active. You can determine the activity status on each interface by using the
following commands.
•

For activity status on the FXS ports, use the show port summary command.

•

For activity status on the BRI ISDN port, use the show isdn status command.

Fan
Some router models do not have a fan, while other models have either one or two fans.
The fans spin at full speed, as a diagnostic aid, immediately after the router is powered up. After the
router has booted, the fans spin as fast as necessary to minimize fan noise while maintaining a safe
internal operating temperature.
The following models have no fan:
•

Cisco 892FSP

•

Cisco 896VA

•

Cisco 897VA

•

Cisco 898EA

Power Supply
The Cisco 892FSP has a single +12V power supply input. The Cisco 892FSP power connector is
different from the barrel-type connector on other 890 series models. The AC adapter cable connector has
four pins and a built-in locking mechanism. Figure 3-33 shows the power adapter connector.
The Cisco 896VA, 897VA, and Cisco 898EA use PoE (12 VDC 43 W, -54 VDC 80 W) and non-PoE
(12 VDC 60 W) power supplies.

Power over Ethernet Module
The Cisco 880 series ISRs can include an optional Power over Ethernet (PoE) module that provides
power to 802.3af-compliant devices connected to FE ports 0 and 1.
The Cisco 890 series ISRs can include an optional PoE module that provides power to 802.3af-compliant
devices connected to FE ports 0, 1, 2, and 3.
The PoE module is an option available only for the Cisco 880 series and 890 series ISRs and requires a
48 V external power adapter.
This function can be added to an 880 or 890 series router by installing the PoE adapter card in the router
and inserting the PoE 48 V external power adapter.

Note

The Cisco 880 series ISRs with embedded WLAN antennas require a single external power supply: a
30 W power supply for non-POE-enabled routers or a 60 W power supply for POE-enabled routers. For
the back panels of some of these routers, see Figure 1-29 and Figure 1-31.
The following PoE budget is available:
•

C867VAE-POE-W-A-K9: 15.4 W (one port PoE)

•

Cisco 880 series: 30.8 W (2 ports each 15.4 W)

•

Cisco 890 series: 61.6 W (4 ports each 15.4 W)

Cisco C891 Series ISRs

3G Cellular Data WAN Connectivity
The 3G (Evolution Data Only [EVDO], Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems [UMTS])
cellular interface is intended for use as a backup data link, but it can also be used as a primary WAN data
link. The 3G technology is third-generation wide-area cellular technology that is used in voice telephony
and broadband wireless data in a mobile environment.
Some Cisco 880G models come with a 34-mm express card slot ready for use with a commercial 3G card
radio. The 3G express card slot is located on the front panel. For a list of supported 3G cards, see the
Cisco 880 Series Integrated Services Routers Data Sheet.
Other Cisco 880G models come with embedded WAN modems for use over GSM or CDMA networks.
These routers have antenna connectors on the back panel. GSM routers have two SIM card slots. For
information on configuring Cisco 880 series ISRs for 3G, see Configuring Cisco EHWIC and 880G for
3G (EV-DO Rev A) and Configuring Cisco EHWIC and 880G for 3.7G (HSPA+)/3.5G (HSPA).

Wireless LAN Connectivity
The embedded Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™, 802.11a/b/g/n-compliant wireless AP is preinstalled in the router
as an optional feature. The Cisco 860 series routers support autonomous features and network
configurations. The Cisco 880 series and 890 series routers support both autonomous and unified
features and network configurations.
The wireless AP does not have an external Console port. Use the router’s Console port as described in
Chapter 3, “Connecting the Router.” To configure the wireless device, use the Cisco IOS command-line
interface (CLI).
Table 1-35 describes the radios and antennas for the Cisco 860 series, 880 series, and 890 series routers.

Note

Cisco 860VAE ISRs do not support wireless LAN connectivity.
The 5-GHz radio operates in the Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) 1, 2, 3, 5-GHz
frequency bands.

Mounting Hardware
Mounting hardware for the Cisco 812 ISR consists of brackets, which connect to the bottom of the router,
and ceiling grid clips, which connect the bracket to a suspended ceiling. The bracket that you need
depends on the mounting location for the router. The ceiling grid clip that you need depends on the type
of suspended ceiling where you need to install the router. You do not need ceiling grid clips if you are
mounting the router to a hard-surface ceiling or a wall.

Mounting Bracket
The Cisco 812 ISR has only one mounting bracket. The C810-BR-CM universal bracket is versatile. It
works with electrical boxes, can be used for wall mounting, and adapts to ceiling installations.
Figure 2-10 shows the universal bracket installed on the Cisco 812 ISR.

Ceiling Grip Clips
Use a ceiling grid clip to mount the router on a suspended ceiling. The ceiling grid clip that you need
depends on the ceiling tiles on your ceiling. There are two types of ceiling grid clips:
•

Ceiling Grid Clip, Recessed (AIR-AP-T-RAIL-R)—If your ceiling tiles hang below the ceiling grid,
this clip provides the best fit between the router and the ceiling.

•

Ceiling Grid Clip, Flush (AIR-AP-T-RAIL-F)—If your ceiling tiles are flush with the ceiling grid,
this clip provides a snug fit between the router and the ceiling.

The standard 9/16, 15/16, and 1 ½-inch wide T-rail mounting are supported with the Ceiling Grip Clips.

The most common type of suspended ceiling support rail (the support for the ceiling tiles) is the ceiling
Tile rail or T-rail for short. You can attach a ceiling grid clip directly to a T-rail ceiling rail. However,
other types of ceiling rails, such as channel rails and beam rails, require an additional adapter clip
(AIR-CHNL-ADAPTER). You need two adapter clips for each router. Set screws on the clips hold them
securely on the ceiling rail.
Figure 2-12 shows the three types of ceiling rails: T-rail, channel, and beam. Figure 2-13 shows the
Cisco Access Point installed with mounting bracket, ceiling grid clip, and adapter clips.

Mounting the Cisco 812 ISR Below a Suspended Ceiling
The recommended power option for the Cisco 812 ISR, when mounted below a suspended ceiling, is the
Cisco C810-POE-SPL (PoE+ splitter) with the use of the supplied 1.3 meter power cable and Cat5 cable
(Plenum rated). The cables can be hidden above the suspended ceiling for a clean installation. See the
“Installing the Cisco PoE+ Splitter” section on page 2-2 for details on installing the PoE+ splitter.
Use a flat screwdriver if there is a need to remove the GE/console cables.
To mount the Cisco 812 ISR below a standard or recessed suspended ceiling, perform these steps.
Step 1

Decide where you want to mount the router on your suspended ceiling.

Step 2

Open the ceiling grid clip completely.

Step 3

Place the ceiling grid clip over the T-rail and close it to the appropriate detent (A, B, or C).

Step 4

Use a screwdriver to tighten the two ceiling grid clip locking screws to prevent the clip from sliding
along the T-rail.

Step 5

Observe the ceiling grid clip width detent letter (A, B, or C) that corresponds to the T-rail width.

Step 6

Align the corresponding holes (A, B, or C) on the mounting bracket over the mounting holes on the
ceiling grid clip.

Cisco Integrated Services Router Hardware Installation Guide
OL-27407-01

2-13

Chapter 2

Installing the Router

Installing the Cisco 810 ISR

Step 7

Hold the mounting bracket and insert a 6-32 x 0.18-inch screw into each of the four corresponding holes
(A, B, or C) and tighten.

Step 8

If necessary, drill or cut a cable access hole in the ceiling tile large enough for the Ethernet and power
cables. Pull the cables through the access hole until you have about 1 foot of cable protruding from the
hole.

Step 9

(Optional). Use the ground screw to ground the router to a suitable building ground. See the “Grounding
the Cisco 812 ISR” section on page 2-18 for general grounding instructions.

Step 10

Connect the Ethernet and power cables to the router.

Step 11

Align the router feet over the keyhole mounting slots on the mounting bracket. If you created a hole for
the cables, make sure the router is positioned so that the cables reach their respective ports.

Step 12

Gently slide the router onto the mounting bracket until it clicks into place. Figure 2-14 shows the
Cisco 812 ISR mounted on a T-rail ceiling rail using a ceiling grid clip.

Mounting the Cisco 812 ISR on a Hard Ceiling or a Wall
This procedure describes the steps required to mount the Cisco 812 ISR on a ceiling constructed of
3/4-inch (19.05 mm) or thicker plywood using #8 fasteners using the universal mounting bracket
(C810-BR-CM).

Note

The Cisco 812 ISR integrated antennas perform best when the router is mounted on horizontal surfaces
such as a table top or ceiling. For advanced features such as voice, location, and router detection, ceiling
mounting is strongly recommended. However, for smaller areas such as conference rooms, kiosks,
transportation environments, or hot-spot usage where data coverage is the primary concern, the unit may
be wall mounted using wall anchors or screws.

Step 4

Chassis installation must allow unrestricted airflow for chassis cooling.

To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special
precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to
ensure your safety:
•

This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

•

When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest
component at the bottom of the rack.

•

If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in
the rack. Statement 1006

Using two screws for each side (supplied with the rack), attach the Cisco 890 series ISR with rack-mount
brackets to a 19-inch rack. Start with the lower pair of screws first, resting the brackets on the lower
screws while you insert the upper pair of screws.

Note

Be sure to leave space above and below each unit in a rack to allow for cooling air circulation.

Note

Do not stack equipment directly above the router. Keep at least 1 rack unit of space above the
router.

Tip

The screw slots in the brackets are spaced to line up with every second pair of screw holes in the
rack. When the correct screw holes are used, the small threaded holes in the brackets line up with
unused screw holes in the rack. If the small holes do not line up with the rack holes, you must
raise or lower the brackets to the next rack hole.

Place the power adapter on a nearby horizontal surface.

Antenna orientation can increase or decrease signal reception due to polarization. Typically, an SP’s
transmitting antenna on the BTS is a vertically polarized omnidirectional antenna, which means the
electromagnetic waves are transmitted from it in a vertical plane. Hence, the receiving antenna needs to
be vertically oriented too in order to receive the best signal. As the angle of the antenna orientation is
changed from vertical to horizontal, only an angular component of the signal is picked up by the antenna.
Therefore, if the antenna orientation is horizontal, the antenna picks up the least signal. The signal is
received by the antenna as a result of it bouncing off of reflective surfaces. Hence, depending on where
the antenna is placed, it may receive different signal strengths. However, the recommended position is
vertical.

Connecting a Data BRI Port
You can connect the Data BRI port to the ISDN service provider as a backup link to the WAN port in
case the primary xDSL (general term referring to various forms of DSL, including global industry
standard symmetrical high-speed DSL [G.SHDSL]) WAN service fails. The Data BRI connection is not
available on the third-generation (3G) models.
The cabling requirements for the ISDN S/T connection are as follows:

Caution

•

You must provide two unshielded Category 5 cables. The first cable connects the NT1 box to the
splitter, and the second cable connects the splitter to the wall jack.

•

There are RJ-45 connectors at both ends of the default orange ISDN S/T cable. However, an
RJ-45–to–RJ-11 ISDN S/T cable is available upon request if the wall jack at the site requires an
RJ-11 connector. Contact your router reseller for the appropriate cable.

Both LAN and WAN ports use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables to these
connectors. To avoid damage to the router, do not connect telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits
(such as ISDN or DSL circuits) to safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits (such as LAN circuits).

This option allows a stepped offhook resistance during seizure, which avoids overloading the circuit
during offhook in the event that ringing voltage is present on the circuit at the same time as the trunk
seizure. The stepped offhook resistance is initially set to 800 Ohms, then adjusts to 50 Ohms when
ringing voltage is not present.
