Appendix B Cable Pinouts
Custom Cable Pinouts for Attaching the CSS Console Port to a Communication Server
• A DB-9 or DB-25 pin female DTE terminal adapter connector. For this
connection, make a full cable that includes the rollover functionality directly
in the cable (using the connector pinouts defined in Table B-8). In addition to
the full cable, you will also need a RJ-45-to-DB-9 or RJ-45-to-DB-25 console
cable to connect the communication server to the CSS (both cables are
included in the CSS Console cable kit).
