Port, Cable, and Connector Specifications

Console Port

You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the two ends of the cable. Holding the cables

side-by-side, with the tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should

be the same color as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug. (See

Figure B-1

.) If

your cable was purchased from Cisco Systems, pin 1 will be white on one connector, and pin 8 will be

white on the other (a rollover cable reverses pins 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5).

the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable and DTE adapter (labeled “Terminal”).

You can also use this mode to connect a modem to the console port using the RJ-45-to-RJ-45

rollover cable and DCE adapter (labeled “Modem”).

•

Mode 2—Switch in the
