For those server applications that require a DB9 serial connector, an 8-pin RJ45-to-DB9 adapter must be used. The following table provides the pin-out required for the adapter to provide RS232 support. A standard DH-10 to DB 9 cable and 8-pin RJ45 to DB9 DCD & DSR adapters are available from Intel in the Serial Accessory Kit.

Note: The RJ45-to-DB9 adapter should match the configuration of the serial device used. One of two pin-out configurations is used depending on whether the serial device requires a DSR or DCD signal. The final adapter configuration should also match the desired pin-out of the RJ45 connector, as it can also be configured to support either DSR or DCD.
