Serial (console) port pinouts
The Console port is a standard male DB-9 connector, as shown in Figure 66.
FIGURE 66 Serial port pin and signalling details
Most PC serial ports require a cable with a female DB-9 connector. However, terminal connections
will vary, requiring a cable with either a DB-9 or DB-25 connector, male or female.
Serial cable options between the FastIron X Series chassis and a PC or terminal are shown in
Figure 67.
NOTE
As indicated in Figure 66 and Figure 67, some of the wires should not be connected. If you do
connect the wires that are labelled “Reserved”, you might get unexpected results with some
terminals.
