To connect external devices and network cables:
Connect to a Network for Out-of-Band Management
1. Turn off the power to the management device.
2. Plug one end of the RJ-45 Ethernet cable into the appropriate ETHERNET port on the firewall
Routing Engine.
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the network device.
Connect a Management Console
NOTE: We no longer include a DB-9 to RJ-45 cable or a DB-9 to RJ-45 adapter with a CAT5E
copper cable as part of the device package. If you require a console cable, you can order it
separately with the part number JNP-CBL-RJ45-DB9 (DB-9 to RJ-45 adapter with a CAT5E
copper cable).
1. Plug one end of the RJ-45 Ethernet cable into the CONSOLE or AUX port on the firewall Routing
Engine.
2. Plug the female DB-9 end into the device's serial port.
Connect the Network Cables
1. Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the interface. For cable specifications, see the
SRX5600 Firewall Hardware Documentation at www.juniper.net/documentation/.
2. If the cable connector port is covered by a rubber safety plug, remove the plug.
LASER WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the ends
of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables connected to a
transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
