MicroUSB-B console port access
The MicroUSB-B console port is on the PSU side of the switch.
NOTE: The S5148F-ON switch uses the Silicon Labs CP2109 USB-B chip. To nd the correct USB-B universal asynchronous
receiver-transmitter (UART) driver, see https://www.silabs.com/products/development-tools/software/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-
drivers.
The terminal settings are the same for the serial console port and the RS-232/RJ-45 console port:
115200 baud rate
No parity
8 data bits
1 stop bit
No ow control
When you connect the microUSB-B port, it becomes the primary connection and, while connected, all messages are sent to the microUSB-
B port.
NOTE: Before starting this procedure, be sure that you have a terminal emulation program already installed on your PC. Install
the appropriate drivers to support the microUSB-B port. For assistance or to download the drivers, contact www.dell.com/
