Cisco Router Ports

[kfgjn43]

Hi,

On the lower-right side of the back of a Cisco 1861 router, there are two ports which I'm unsure about. On page 8 of the following PDF, they are referred to as an "FE port" and a "LAN Uplink" port:

What purpose do these ports serve? Is the LAN uplink port for connecting to a modem? Does FE stand for fast ethernet?

Thanks,

Yeap, FE means Fast Ethernet.

LAN Uplink I imagine is related to connected to the Local Area Network
