Appendix B Connector and Cable Specifications
Cable and Adapter Specifications
The RJ-45 console port uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector (See Table B-2and Table B-3.) The supplied RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable is used to connect the console port of the switch to a console PC. You need to provide a RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter if you want to connect the switch console port to a terminal. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) containing that adapter. For console port and adapter pinout information, see Table B-2and Table B-3.

SFP and SFP+ Module Cable Specifications
Each port must match the wave-length specifications on each end of the cable, and the cable must not exceed the stipulated cable length. Copper 1000BASE-T SFP module transceivers use standard four twisted-pair, Category 5 cable at lengths up to 328 feet (100 meters).
