To connect devices, modems and PDUs to serial ports:
Make sure the crossover cable used to connect a device has the same pinout type that is configured in the
software for the port (either Cyclades or Cisco).
1. Make sure the devices to be connected are turned off.
2. Use CAT 5 or greater crossover cables to connect the devices to the console server, using an adaptor, if
necessary.
3. To connect modems, use straight-through CAT 5 or greater cables, with an appropriate connector or adaptor
(USB, DB-9 or DB-25) for the modem.
NOTE: To comply with EMC requirements, use shielded cables for all port connections.
WARNING: Do not turn on the power on the connected devices until after the console server is turned on.
To daisy chain PDUs to a console server:
This procedure assumes that you have one PDU connected to a serial port on a console server.
NOTE: Daisy chaining is not possible with SPC PDUs. ServerTech PDUs will allow only one level (Master and Slave) of daisy
chaining.
1. Connect one end of a UTP cable with RJ-45 connectors to the OUT port of the connected PDU.
