The above provided information enables a managed station( a PC or Console terminal) to
connect directly to the switch using a straight through cable.
Note
: For using Console port to configure the managed switch, a serial (Null-modem)
female to female cable is required to communicate properly. The Null-Modem (DB-9)
cable is optional and can be order from the factory, along with the unit as-
CONSOLE CBL for serial port
CONSOLE USB for USB port
NOTE for Power Substations
: In support of the IEEE 1613 Class 2 standard, GCI
advises that, for substation applications, the serial RJ-45console ports are
intended for temporary connectivity to other equipment such as PCs. Since the
console port connection is temporary, it is excluded from IEEE 1613 packet-
loss testing per the 1613 standard-defined test procedure.
