Connecting to a Device Port
You can connect almost any device that has a serial console port to a device port on the SLB unit
for remote administration. The console port must support the RS-232C interface.
Note:
Many servers must either have the serial port enabled as a console or the
keyboard and mouse detached. Consult the server hardware and/or software
documentation for more information.
To connect to a device port:
1. Connect one end of the Cat 5 cable to a device port on the SLB unit front panel.
2. Connect the other end of the Cat 5 cable to a Lantronix serial console adapter.
Note:
To connect a device port to a Lantronix SLP™ power management, use the
ADP010104 adapter and a Cat5 patch cable between the adapter and the connected
equipment. See the appendix,
about Lantronix adapters.

Connecting to Network Ports
The SLB branch office manager's network ports, 10Base-T/100Base-TX, allow remote access to
the attached devices and the system administrative functions. Use a standard RJ45-terminated
Category 5 cable to connect to the network port.
