Console Port; Leds - Cisco IE 3000 Hardware Installation Manual

Chapter 1 Overview
Alarm relays often control an external alarm device, such as a bell or a light. To connect an external
alarm device to the relay, you must connect two relay contact wires to complete an electrical circuit. Both
alarm terminals on the power and relay connector are labeled A, and you can connect them without
regard to polarity.
See the switch software configuration guide for instructions on configuring the alarm relays.
For more information about the power and relay connector, see
You can get replacement power and relay connectors (PWR-IE3000-CNCT=) by calling Cisco Technical
Support.

Console Port

You can connect a switch to a PC through the console port and the supplied RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable.
If you want to connect a switch to a terminal, you need to provide an RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE
adapter. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) with that adapter from Cisco Systems.
