Management Cable Pinout
Connecting the Console Port
The console port is an asynchronous serial port. If you connect a device to these ports, it must be capable
of asynchronous transmission. Your terminal or terminal emulation mode must be set to VT100 with the
following settings:
•
9600 baud rate (To avoid autobaud input, the default is set to a 9600 BPS.)
•
No parity
•
8 data bits
•
1 stop bit
•
Window Terminal Emulator option set to
NO
•
24 lines X 80 characters
•
No flow control
Cable and Adapter Pin Assignments
Use the console port on the RPM of the C150 to connect to a terminal port, PC serial port, or a terminal
server to configure and monitor your system. An RJ-45 Ethernet cable is required to connect to the
Ethernet port.
The console port is an RJ-45, the pinouts of which are shown in
