2.2 CONSOLE CABLE CONFIGURATION

A single female DB-9 receptacle provides a Console interface to the
management terminal. Depending on your specific terminal, one of two
cable configurations (9 pin to 25 pin or 9 pin to 9 pin) is used for the
connection to the MRXI Console port. Figure 2-2 shows the pinout for
both cables.
