When the switch detects a valid USB connection to a powered device, input from the RJ-45 console port
is immediately disabled, and input from the USB console is enabled. Removing the USB connection
immediately reenables input from the RJ-45 console connection. An LED on the switch front panel (see

The switch provides a configurable inactivity timeout that reactivates the RJ-45 console if no input
activity has occurred on the USB console for a specified time period. After the USB console has been
deactivated due to a timeout, you can restore its operation by disconnecting and reconnecting the USB
cable. You can disable USB console operation by using Cisco IOS commands. See the switch software
configuration guide for details.
The 4-pin mini-Type B connectors resemble 5-pin mini-Type B connectors. They are not compatible.
Note
Use only the 5-pin mini-Type B. See

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to configure an inactivity timeout which reactivates the
RJ-45 console if the USB console has been activated and no input activity has occurred on the USB
console for a specified time period.
After the USB console deactivates due to inactivity, you cannot use the CLI to reactivate it. Disconnect
and reconnect the USB cable to reactivate the USB console. For information on using the CLI to
configure the USB console interface, see the switch software guide.

USB Type A Port

The USB Type A interface provides access to external USB flash devices (also known as thumb drives
or USB keys).
The interface supports Cisco USB flash drives with capacities from 64 MB to 1 GB.
Cisco IOS software provides standard file system access to the flash device: read, write, erase, and copy,
as well as the ability to format the flash device with a FAT file system.

Uplink Ports

Depending upon the switch model, several uplink ports are available to connect to other devices.
