The S60 has 2 management ports available for system access: a console port and a USB-B port. The
USB-B ports acts exactly as the console port. The terminal settings are the same, and the S60 sends all
messages to the USB-B drive when it is connected.
The USB-B connector port is labeled on the the S60 chassis. It is to the left of the management ports, as
you face the rear of the chassis.

console connection is considered inactive if the USB-B port is also connected.
