Mini-USB Type-B Console Port Specifications for an NFX350 Device
NFX350 Device has two: an RJ-45 port, and a Mini-USB port.
By default, the RJ-45 port is set as the active console port. It can display all the early boot and low-level
message output and you can access the device through this port in the debugger prompt.
When the mini-USB console port cable is active, the RJ45 console port is deactivated. Either USB or RJ45
console is active at a time. For the mini-USB console port to be active, you must ensure that the USB to
serial driver is installed in the device, where mini-USB console cable is connected.
The Mini-USB console port uses a Mini-B plug (5-pin) connector to connect to a console management
device. The default baud rate for the console port is 9600 baud.
