Accessing the Console Port
To access the console port, follow these steps:
For the console port pinout, refer to Accessing the RJ-45 Console Port with a DB-9 Adapter.
1. Install an RJ-45 copper cable into the console port. Use a rollover (crossover) cable to connect the console port to a
terminal server.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the DTE terminal server.
3. Terminal settings on the console port cannot be changed in the software and are set as follows:
● No parity
● 8 data bits
● 1 stop bit
● No flow control
Pin Assignments
You can connect to the console using a RJ-45 to RJ-45 rollover cable and a RJ-45 to DB-9 female DTE adapter to a terminal
server (for example, a PC).
The pin assignments between the console and a DTE terminal server are as follows:
