5.4Device Card

The ConsoleServer 3200 is designed so that the default device port communications settings will match the communications settings of most Sun® server and workstation console ports (9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, one stop bit). Other equipment types (i.e., Cisco®) frequently use similar communications settings; check the manuals included with the equipment for the correct settings. The table below lists the default serial port communications settings for the ConsoleServer 3200. Sections 6.3 and 6.4 outline the commands for changing the terminal and device port communications settings.

The following tables list the adapter part number and port configuration for some common equipment types that may be connected to the ConsoleServer 3200. Note that in some cases, an additional cable or adapter is included with the equipment to convert a proprietary pinout to an EIA-standard pinout. Also, note that it is not possible to connect the RJ45 serial port of the ConsoleServer directly to the RJ45 serial port of any third-party equipment. Sun Netra servers, Cisco switches, and other similar devices require a special adapter or cable to connect to the ConsoleServer. The adapter or cable is usually provided by the manufacturer of the equipment (e.g., Sun), or may need to be created by the user. The adapters and cables from the equipment manufacturer are usually designed to interface directly to a terminal, so the ConsoleServer device port must be configured as DTE rather than its default value of DCE. Lightwave Communications has pre-made adapters and kits for some common equipment types; contact Lightwave for information regarding your specific application.

The reference diagram on page 14 shows the proper cabling for some common equipment configurations.
