Connecting the console cable 

CAUTION: 

The serial ports on PCs do not support hot swapping. To connect a PC to an operating router, first 
connect the PC end. To disconnect a PC from an operating router, first disconnect the router end.

To connect the console cable: 

1. 

Select a configuration terminal, which can be an ASCII terminal with an RS232 serial port or a 
PC. (A PC is more commonly used.) 

2. 

Connect the DB-9 connector (female) of the console cable to the RS-232 serial port on the 
configuration terminal and the RJ-45 connector to the console port of the router. 

NOTE:  

If the configuration terminal does not have an RS-232 serial port, a serial adapter is required to 
connect the console cable to a USB port on the terminal.
