Connecting Equipment to the ConsoleServer 3200

When connecting devices to the ConsoleServer 3200, be sure to use Lightwave
Communications cables and adapters to ensure the proper transmission of data signals.
If a device has an RJ45 serial port, use the manufacturer's cable included with the
equipment to convert the RJ45 serial connector to a DB9 or DB25 connector, and then
use a Lightwave Communications adapter to convert back to RJ45 to attach to the
device port. Directly connecting the RJ45 port on the ConsoleServer 3200 to the RJ45
port on a third-party device will not allow for the proper transmission of data signals.
