Table 3-8 Available I/O Module Configurations 3: Installation Note: The 8-port RJ45 serial module is supported on Bay 1 only. The available I/O module configurations in Table 3-8 are supported with either dual Gigabit Ethernet or dual SFP ports. Connecting to Network Ports The SLC network ports, 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet, allow remote access to the attached devices and the system administrative functions. Use a standard RJ45-terminated Category 5 cable to connect to the network port. A CAT5e or better cable is recommended for use with a 1000 Base-T Ethernet connection. Note: One possible use for the two Ethernet ports is to have one port on a private, secure network, and the other on an unsecured network. Connecting Terminals The console port is for local access to the SLC 8000 advanced console manager and the attached devices. You may attach a dumb terminal or a computer with terminal emulation to the console port. The SLC console port uses RS-232C protocol and supports VT100 emulation. The default serial settings are 9600 baud, 8 bit data, No parity, 1 stop bit with no flow control. To connect the console port to a terminal or computer with terminal emulation, Lantronix offers optional adapters that provide a connection between an RJ45 jack and a DB9 or DB25 connector. The console port is configured as DTE (non-reversed RJ45). See Appendix B: Adapters and Pinouts on page 461 for more information. SLC™ 8000 Advanced Console Manager User Guide 42
