Figure B-2 Copper SFP Module RJ-45 Connector
Console Port
The console port uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector, which is described in Table B-1 and Table B-2. An
RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable is used to connect the console port of the switch to a console PC. You need
to provide a RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter if you want to connect the switch console port to a
terminal. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) containing that adapter from Cisco.
Note A console cable is not provided in the accessory kit. It can be ordered as an option.
Identifying a Crossover Cable
To identify a rollover cable, compare the two modular ends of the cable. Hold the cable ends
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-3.)
