Example:
1 2501 Router
1 2503 Router
1 DTE-DCE Cable
To connect both router and have them communicate with each other, connect
DTE end of the cable to S0 of 2501 and connect DCE end of cable to 2503's
S0. This is just an example. You can always revers it or connect it to any
other serial port as
Frank,
The router can be either if you are speaking of a
standard 5in1 60 pin (I think) serial port (supports
five standards). The cables are coded (a few pins are
jumped together to set the ID), so that the router
know exactly what cable you are plugging in. If you
want to know what cable you h
I just got such descriptin from a book .So you mean if one router has s1
connected with
DTE cable and s2 connected with a DCE cable,it must be one of the two
routers of a back-to-back connection.
could you explain the DTE / DCE cable and connection way of a back-to-back
connection?
Thanks.

routers are generally DTE devices so both DTE cannot be conected and

When connecting two Cisco routers back to back, using the appropriate cable,
one router must provide clocking. The router that must do so is the one into
which the DCE end of the cable is connected. What is happening is that one
