Management ports
Besides the 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports, the Z9264F-ON switch provides several ports for management and storage.
NOTE: The output examples in this section are for reference only. Your output may vary.
Topics:
• Console port access
• MicroUSB Type-B console port access
• USB storage mount
Console port access
The RJ45 console port is on the I/O-side of the Z9264F-ON switch.
Figure 19. Z9264F-ON RJ45 console and management ports
● 1—RJ45 console port (top), RJ45management port (bottom)
CAUTION:
Ensure that any equipment that is attached to the serial port can support the required 115200 baud
rate.
NOTE: When connecting the RJ45 console to the patch panel or terminal server using Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cables, the
maximum cable length is 100m. However, if the Ethernet cable is disconnected from the patch panel or terminal server but
connected to the RJ45 console, the maximum cable length is 6m. If the cable is longer than 6m when disconnected from
the panel or server, your switch may not boot.
NOTE: Before starting this procedure, ensure that your computer has a 9-pin serial port and that you have installed a
terminal emulation program on your computer.
NOTE: If the serial port on your computer cannot accept a female DB-9 connector, use a DB-9 male-to-male adaptor.
1. Install the provided RJ-45 connector-side of the provided cable into the switch console port.
2. Install the DB-9 female-side of the provided copper cable into the serial port on your computer.
Alternatively, install the DB-9 cable into other data terminal equipment (DTE) server hardware.
3. Keep the default terminal settings on the console as follows:
● 115200 baud rate
● No parity
● Eight data bits
● One stop bit
● No flow control
