Module Power States
The module has the following power states:
- Normal mode (default mode)—Module is active. Receive and Transmit modes are possible. In this state:
– The module is fully powered.
– The module is capable of placing/receiving calls or establishing data connections on the wireless network.
– The USB interface is fully active.
Note The module unit defaults to the Normal state when VCC is first applied.
- Low power mode ( airplane mode )—The module is active, but RF is disabled. In this state, RF (both Rx and Tx) is disabled on the module, but the USB interface is still active. This state is controlled though the host interface by the following software commands:
– AT!PCSTATE=0 command (AT Command Set for User Equipment (UE) (Release 6))
– CNS_RADIO_POWER [0x1075] (CDMA CnS Reference (Document 2130754))
Note The module goes from normal mode into low-power mode to suspend RF activity. This occurs when the module’s supply voltage exceeds either the high or low limits. The module returns to normal mode to resume RF activity. It occurs when the module’s supply voltage returns from critical to normal limits.
- Disconnected mode —No power to the module. The host power source is disconnected from the module and all voltages associated with the module are at 0 V.
CGR 1120 and CGR 1240 control the power to the module, therefore the host can stay powered on and cut the power in order to put the module into the disconnected state.
The module begins a shutdown sequence and powers off if it has been in a powered-on state for more than 10.5 seconds and the host device drives the W_Disable# signal low for:
- MC5728V: > 50 ms
- Other devices: > 500 ms
Installing and Removing the 3G CDMA Module
Some Cisco Connected Grid 2G/3G Wireless Connected Grid Modules are installed into the host router at the factory.
Before You Begin Installation
Before installing the module, verify that the following guidelines have been met:
- Clearance to the I/O-side view is such that the LEDs can be easily read.
- Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures. Make sure that the cabling is away from other devices that might damage the cables.
- Airflow around the switch module and through the vents is unrestricted.
- Temperature around the unit does not exceed 140°F (60° C). If the switch module is installed in a closed or multi-rack assembly, the temperature around it might be higher than normal room temperature.
- Relative humidity around the switch module does not exceed 95 percent (non-condensing).
- Altitude at the installation site is not higher than 4921 feet (1500 meters).
- For 10/100 and 10/100/1000 fixed ports, cable lengths from the switch module to connected devices are not longer than 328 feet (100 meters).

CDMA Network Overview
CDMA is a standard for mobile communication. A typical CDMA network includes terminal equipment, mobile termination, base transceiver station (BTS), base station controller (BSC), packet data serving node (PDSN), and other data network entities. The PDSN is the interface between a BSC and an internet gateway.
Figure 4 shows the relationship of the components of a typical CDMA network, including a PDSN and a branch office with the 3G CDMA module.
As the figure shows, the branch office connects to a radio tower and a BTS. The BTS connects to a BSC, which contains a component called the packet control function (PCF). The PCF communicates with the Cisco PDSN for data communication and with the mobile switching center (MSC) for voice.
Figure 4 Overview of the CDMA Network
CDMA2000 is a family of standards for 3G mobile communication based on CDMA. The 3G CDMA module supports these CDMA2000 standards:
- 3G Evolution-Data Optimized (EVDO) is a 3G telecommunications standard for the wireless transmission of data through radio signals, typically for broadband Internet access. EVDO uses multiplexing techniques including Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), as well as Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), to maximize both individual users' throughput and the overall system throughput.
- Single Carrier Radio Transmission Technology (1xRTT) is a precursor to EVDO that was designed to replace the IS-95 CDMA standard. 1xRTT offers voice and data transmission.
3G Cellular WAN MIB
This section describes the MIB definition and implementation support for Cisco cellular 3G WAN products on the customer premises equipment (CPE) end.
The 3G Cellular WAN MIB supports both CDMA and GSM set of cellular standards and includes the following technologies:
- GSM—GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSPA
- CDMA—1xRTT/EVDO RevA/EVDO Rev0
The 3G cellular MIB uses indexes from the cellular interface and from the modem. You can obtain the interface index using IF-MIBs and the modem index using the ENTITY MIBs.
The 3G MIB definition includes the following major sub-trees:
- Common objects
- CDMA objects
- GSM objects
- Notifications
You can use MIB object c3gStandard defined in the c3gWanCommonTable to distinguish between CDMA or GSM and implementing the MIB for CDMA or GSM.
NoteCisco 3G MIB supports all SNMP versions including V1, V2, V2C, and V3. For more information about SNMP, see the SNMP Software Configuration Guide for Cisco 1000 Series Connected Grid Routers (Cisco IOS).
At a high level, the Cisco 3G WAN MIBs are divided into two groups and have the following structure:
1. ciscoWan3gMIBObjects—this group defines all the MIB objects for Cisco 3G WAN MIBs
2. ciscoWan3gMIBNotifs—this group defines all the notification events for Cisco 3G WAN MIBs
ciscoWan3gMIBObjects
The ciscoWan3gMIBObjects group has three sub-groups:
– c3gWanCommonTable—defines the common MIB objects for both CDMA and GSM
– c3gWanCdma—defines the MIB objects specific for CDMA 2000 standards (3GPP2)
– c3gWanGsm—defines the MIB objects specific for GSM/UMTS standards (3GPP)
Under c3gWanCdma, there are seven sub-groups:
- c3gCdmaSessionTable for session related objects
- c3gCdmaConnectionTable for connection related objects
- c3gCdmaIdentityTable for user identity related objects
- c3gCdmaNetworkTable for network related objects
- c3gCdmaProfile for user profile related objects
- c3gCdmaRadio for radio related objects
- c3gCdmaSecurityTable for security related objects
ciscoWan3gMIBNotifs
Cisco Cellular 3G WAN MIB implementation supports SNMP GET (read operation) for all MIB objects, and SNMP SET (write operation) for the following RW (read-write) objects, including:
- c3gRssiOnsetNotifThreshold
- c3gRssiAbateNotifThreshold
- c3gEcIoOnsetNotifThreshold
- c3gEcIoAbateNotifThreshold
- c3gModemTemperOnsetNotifThreshold
- c3gModemTemperAbateNotifThreshold
- c3gModemReset
- c3gModemUpNotifEnabled
- c3gModemDownNotifEnabled
- c3gServiceChangedNotifEnabled
- c3gNetworkChangedNotifEnabled
- c3gConnectionStatusChangedNotifFlag
- c3gRssiOnsetNotifFlag
- c3gRssiAbateNotifFlag
- c3gEcIoOnsetNotifFlag
- c3gEcIoAbateNotifFlag
- c3gModemTemperOnsetNotifEnabled
- c3gModemTemperAbateNotifEnabled
NoteBy default, all notifications are disabled. To receive notifications, you must enable these notifications (seeTable 10).
NoteThe IF MIBs also have traps for the cellular interface objects that are used in conjunction with the notification type. When you get a notification, you must check the associated objects.
Table 9 shows various notifications and what they mean.

Configuring the 3G CDMA Module
The module is configured using the system software.
This section covers the following topics:
NoteThe 3G CDMA module can be plugged into slot 3 of the Cisco 1120 Connected Grid Router and Cisco 1240 Connected Grid Router. Therefore, the interface name used to configure the module is 3/1. Interface 3/1 is used in the configuration examples in this section.
Prerequisites
The following are prerequisites to configuring the 3G CDMA module:
- You must have service availability from a wireless service provider, and you must have network coverage where your router will be physically located. For a complete list of supported carriers, see the data sheet at the following URL: http://www.cisco.com/go/3g
- You must subscribe to a service plan with a wireless service provider. For manual activation, you will need the following specific information from the provider:
– Master Subsidy Lock (MSL) number
– Mobile Directory number (MDN)
– MSID
The ESN number is on the modem label. Make sure that your service is registered with the ESN number. You can also obtain the ESN by using the show cellular hardware command. See “Retrieving the Electronic Serial Number” section for more information.
- You must install the required antennas before you configure the 3G GSM module. See the Connected Grid Antennas Installation Guide for instructions on how to install the antennas.
- You must make sure to check your LEDs for signal reception as described in Table 2 .
- You should be familiar with Cisco IOS.
Restrictions and Limitations
The following restrictions apply to the Cisco 3G CDMA module:
- Data connection can be originated only by the 3G CDMA module. Remote dial-in is not supported.
- Throughput—Because of the shared nature of wireless communications, the amount of throughput that is experienced varies, depending on the number of active users or congestion in a network.
- Cellular networks have higher latency, compared to wired networks. Latency rates depend on the technology and carrier. Latency can increase because of network congestion.
- Any restrictions that are a part of the terms of service from your carrier.
Modem Activation and Provisioning
To activate and provision your modem, follow these procedures:
Verifying Signal Strength and Service Availability
To verify the signal strength and service availability on your modem, use the following commands in privileged EXEC mode.
DETAILED STEPS
|
|
|
Step 1 |
show cellular slot/port network |
Displays information about the carrier network, cell site, and available service. |
Step 2 |
show cellular slot/port radio |

Router# show cellular 3/1 radio
Router# show cellular 3/1 hardware
Router# show cellular 3/1 all
Activating the Modem
The modem for the CGM-3G-EVDO-V module is activated using over-the-air service provisioning (OTASP).
Activating Using OTASP
To activate a wireless account using over-the-air service provisioning (OTASP), use the following procedure.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
- Obtain the phone number for use with this command from your carrier. The standard OTASP calling number is *22899.
- The modem must be attached to a 1xRTT/EVDO service.
DETAILED STEPS
|
|
|
|
cellular slot/port cdma activate otasp phone_number |
Activates the modem using OTASP. phone_number — Phone number that you must dial to begin activation using OTASP. This number is specific to a wireless provider. For Verizon Wireless, it is *22899. |
EXAMPLE
router# cellular 3/1 cdma activate otasp *22899
Beginning OTASP activation
*Feb 6 23:18:45.393: OTA State = SPL unlock, Result = Success
*Feb 6 23:19:10.229: OTA State = PRL downloaded, Result = Success
*Feb 6 23:19:11.169: OTA State = Profile downloaded, Result = Success
*Feb 6 23:19:11.173: OTA State = MDN downloaded, Result = Success

*Feb 6 23:19:14.613: Over the air provisioning complete; Result:Success
Data Call Set up
To set up a data call, use the following procedures:
Figure 5 shows a data call setup using the 3G CDMA module.
Figure 5 Data Call Setup with the 3G CDMA Module
Configuring the Cellular Interface
To configure the cellular interface, perform the following procedure in the cellular interface mode.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
- The modem supports both mobile IP (MIP) and simple IP (SIP). In both modes, the modem authenticates with the network. However, when the modem is configured in MIP-preferred mode (ask your carrier which mode is supported), if MIP authentication fails, the modem tries to set up a SIP call.
The modem uses SIP authentication parameters derived during modem provisioning and passes the CHAP authentication challenge to the cellular interface. The purpose of the authentication challenge is to keep the cellular interface informed of Link Control Protocol (LCP) negotiations between the modem and the network.
- When a static IP address is required for the cellular interface, the address may be configured as ip address negotiated . During IPCP, the network ensures that the correct static IP address is allocated to the device. If a tunnel interface is configured with ip address unnumbered type number , it is necessary to configure the actual static IP address under the cellular interface, in place of ip address negotiated . For a sample cellular interface configuration, see the “Basic Cellular Interface Configuration: Example” section.

Configuring DDR Backup
To monitor the primary connection and initiate the backup connection when needed, the router can use one of the following methods:
- Backup Interface—The backup interface that stays in standby mode until the primary interface line protocol is detected as down and then is brought up.
- Floating Static Route—The route through the backup interface has an administrative distance that is greater than the administrative distance of the primary connection route and therefore would not be in the routing table until the primary interface goes down.
- Dialer Watch—Dialer watch is a backup feature that integrates dial backup with routing capabilities.

Configuring Data Dedicated Transmission Mode (DDTM)
On CDMA modems, data transmission is disrupted by incoming voice calls if data dedicated transmission mode (DDTM) is disabled. You can enable DDTM mode so the modem will ignore incoming voice calls.
To enable dedicated data transmission mode (DDTM) on a CDMA modem, use the cdma ddtm command in configuration mode
This command is enabled by default. You can disable this feature by using the no cdma ddtm command.
NoteWhen DDTM is enabled, only voice calls will be blocked for the MC5728v modem.
Configuration Examples
This section provides the following configuration examples:
Basic Cellular Interface Configuration: Example
The following is an example configuration where the cellular interface is used as a primary and is configured as the default route:
chat-script cdma "" "ATDT#777" TIMEOUT 60 "CONNECT“
ip route 74.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 Cellular3/1
dialer-list 1 protocol ip list 1
Tunnel over Cellular Interface Configuration: Example
The following sample configuration shows the configuration of the static IP address when a tunnel interface is configured using the ip address unnumbered < cellular interface > command:
ip address unnumbered cellular 3/1
tunnel source Cellular3/1
tunnel destination 128.107.248.254
! traffic of interest through the tunnel/cellular interface
ip route 10.10.0.0 255.255.0.0 Tunnel2

dialer-list 1 protocol ip list 1
Troubleshooting
If you are encountering issues with 3G CDMA module operation, this section can help you troubleshoot and pinpoint the cause of failure.
Verifying Configuration
To verify your configuration and to make sure that your connection is up and running, follow these step:
Step 1 After creating a profile with the create cellular profile command, send a ping from a router or attached host.
Step 2 If you do not get any response, to find where failure is occurring, run the following debug commands:
- debug chat
- debug PPP negotiation
- debug dialer
- debug cellular slot/port messages callcontrol
- show cellular slot/port all
- show interface cellular slot/port
- show running-config
- show controllers cellular slot/port
Step 3 Save the output from all these commands and contact your system administrator.
Checking Signal Strength
If the RSSI level is very low, for example, less than -110 dBm, it means one of the following:
- Your antenna is not connected
- The antenna is not working properly
- There is no service in your area
If all the above are connected and working as they should, contact your system administrator.

Retrieving the Electronic Serial Number
If your network provider requests the 11-digit decimal equivalent of your Electronic Serial Number (ESN), you must retrieve your ESN, then convert it to decimal notation. See Converting Hexadecimal ESN to Decimal Notation.
The ESN number is located directly on the modem label in hexadecimal notation. It can also be retrieved using the Cisco IOS CLI using the show cellular 3/1 all command.
The sample output below shows the IMEI number:
Router# show cellular 3/1 all
Modem Firmware Version = T1_0_3_2AP R361 CNSZXD00000061 2011/04/15 17:40:48
Modem Firmware Built = 04/15/11

Converting Hexadecimal ESN to Decimal Notation
If your network provider requests the 11-digit decimal equivalent of your Electronic Serial Number (ESN), you must retrieve your ESN, then convert it to decimal notation. See Retrieving the Electronic Serial Number.
To convert the ESN number from hexadecimal notation to decimal notation, follow this procedure:
Step 1
Start with the 8-digit HEX ESN # obtained from the label or using CLI, for example 0x603C9854. This number consists of two parts:
- 0x60—Serial number
- 3C9854—Manufacturer’s code
Step 2 Convert manufacturer’s code to decimal as shown:
Hexadecimal 0x60 equals decimal 96.
If decimal value is two digits only, prepend it with a zero to expand it to three digits.
Manufacturer’s code is thus 096
Step 3 Convert the serial number to decimal, as shown in the example below:
Hexadecimal 0x3C9854 equals decimal 3971156
If decimal value is less than 8 digits, add enough zeros to make it into an 8 digit number.
Serial number is thus 03971156
Step 4 To obtain complete 11-digit decimal ESN notation, combine manufacturer code and serial number:
Manufacturer code: 096
Serial #: 03971156
Decimal ESN: 09603971156
Command Reference
This reference contains Cisco IOS commands for the 3G CDMA module.
For commands to enable CDMA event notifications, see Table 10 .
cdma ddtm
On CDMA modems, data transmission is disrupted by incoming voice calls if data dedicated transmission mode (DDTM) is disabled. You can enable DDTM mode so the modem will ignore incoming voice calls.
To enable DDTM on a CDMA modem, use the cdma ddtm command in configuration mode.
