Connect a Console Terminal

Use the console terminal for local administrative access to the universal gateway. You can connect a terminal only to the console
port. You can use the auxiliary port to connect a terminal or a modem for remote access to the universal gateway.
To connect a terminal (an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software) to the console port on a
Cisco AS5350XM or Cisco AS5400XM universal gateway, follow this procedure.
Step 1 Connect the terminal to the console port by using an RJ-45 rollover cable and an RJ-45-to-DB-25 or RJ-45-to-DB-9
adapter. (See Figure 18 and Figure 19.) The adapters provided are labeled TERMINAL. The adapters and the rollover
cable are included in the accessory kit that ships with the universal gateway.
