Cable Pinouts
Use the information in this section to ensure that the cables and connecting
hardware meet requirements. For proper operation, use only approved
cables when you install all equipment.
The console and auxiliary ports on the Edge Router module require a
mini-DIN to DB-25 serial port adapter cable. You can use a cable that meets
the specifications described in this section or you can purchase the 3Com
OpenHub Management Cable (Part Number OHPMGT-CAB).
The OpenHub Management Cable has a:
■
Mini-DIN connector
— Plugs into the console or auxiliary port on the Edge
Router module.
■
DB-25 connector
— Plugs into the cable of the peripheral device.
To connect the mini-DIN to DB-25 cable to another DTE device, use a null
modem adapter.
