Console and Auxiliary Port Signals and Pinouts

The console port is configured as data communications equipment (DCE), and the auxiliary port is configured as data terminal equipment (DTE). The console and auxiliary ports both use RJ-45 connectors. RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapters are available for connection to modems and other external communications equipment. Both ports are configured as asynchronous serial ports.

Table D-1 shows the pinouts for the console port and Table D-2 shows the pinouts for the auxiliary port.

NOTE

Table D-17 show the pinouts for the adapters.
