A null modem configuration is needed, meaning the transmit and receive signals
are reversed (crossed over) for DTE to DTE communications. You can use the
supplied RJ-45 crossover adapters with a standard RJ-45 cable to achieve the null
modem configuration.

terminal or terminal emulator (PC or workstation) connected to the service processor
serial management port, you will not see system messages.
