Cable Configuration For The Management Terminal - Cabletron Systems EMME User Manual

5.1.1 Cable Configuration for the Management Terminal
This section outlines the proper cable configurations to connect a
management terminal to the Console port of the EMME. For information
on the appropriate pinouts, refer to Appendix C.
You need an adapter kit containing the following items to connect a
terminal to the EMME Console port:
• An RS232 cable
• An adapter
• A device cable
The adapter you use depends on whether you connect a VT320 terminal
or a PC emulating a VT320 to the EMME Console port. Read the
information included with the adapter kit to make sure that you are using
the correct adapter.
To configure the cables, perform the following steps:
1. Plug a straight-through twisted pair cable (e.g., an RS232 cable) into
the EMME's RJ45 Console port.
2. Plug the other end of the RS232 cable into the adapter.
3. Connect the adapter into the device cable and plug the other end of the
device cable into the terminal.
4. Power on the terminal. Access to Local Management is automatic.
