The SP serial management port is labeled SER MGT. Use the SER MGT port only for server management. This port is the default connection between the SP and a terminal or a computer.
Caution - Do not attach a modem to this port. |
Use an RJ-45 cable that is set up for a null modem configuration, in which the transmit and receive signals cross over. You can use a crossover adapter with a standard RJ-45 cable to achieve the required null modem configuration. See ADD LINK TO "RJ-45 Crossover Pinouts".
