Console cable
Console cable is an eight-wire shielded cable. At one end of the cable is a crimped RJ-45 connector to
the console port on the router; at the other end of the cable is a DB-9 (female) connector to the serial
port on the console terminal.
The following figure illustrates the console cable.

Connecting the console cable
Follow these steps to connect the router to a console terminal:
Step 1: Select a console terminal.
It can be a standard ASCII terminal with an RS232 serial port, or more commonly, a PC.
Step 2: Connect the console cable.
Power down the router and the console terminal, connect the RS232 serial port on the console terminal
to the console port on the router through the console cable.
Verify the connection and power up the devices. The console terminal shows the startup information of
the router if the connection is correct.
