Cable Pinouts

Use the information in this section to ensure that the cables and connecting

 

hardware meet requirements. For proper operation, use only approved

 

cables when you install all equipment.

 

The console and auxiliary ports on the Edge Router module require a

 

mini-DIN to DB-25 serial port adapter cable. You can use a cable that meets

 

the specifications described in this section or you can purchase the 3Com

 

OpenHub Management Cable (Part Number OHPMGT-CAB).

 

The OpenHub Management Cable has a:

Mini-DIN connector — Plugs into the console or auxiliary port on the Edge Router module.

DB-25 connector — Plugs into the cable of the peripheral device.

To connect the mini-DIN to DB-25 cable to another DTE device, use a null modem adapter.
