Appendix D: Serial Cable

Appendix D. Serial Cable

For serial remote control, ServSwitch 4site Flex requires a special adapter to connect a CAT5 cable to the serial RJ-45 port at the rear panel of ServSwitch 4site Flex.

This adapter connects to your external serial control device (for example, computer). You can connect any CAT5 cable to the adapter. The other end of the CAT5 cable connects to the RJ-45 port of ServSwitch 4site Flex.

The adapter (plus a standard CAT5 cable) is included with ServSwitch 4site Flex.

Figure D-1. Serial cable = adapter + standard CAT5 cable.
