Cable Connector Pinouts
RJ-45 Connector Pinouts for the Routing Engine ETHERNET Port
RJ-45 Connector Pinouts for the Routing Engine AUX and CONSOLE Ports
This appendix describes the pinouts for the following cable connectors:
RJ-45 Connector Pinouts for the Routing Engine ETHERNET Port on page 185
RJ-45 Connector Pinouts for the Routing Engine AUX and CONSOLE
Ports on page 185
The port on the craft interface labeled ETHERNET is an autosensing 10/100-Mbps
Ethernet RJ-45 receptacle that accepts an Ethernet cable for connecting the Routing
Engine to a management LAN (or other device that supports out-of-band
management). For more information, see "Routing Engine Interface
Ports" on page 16. Table 40 on page 185 describes the RJ-45 connector pinout.
