ACX7348 Management and Console Port Specifications and Pinouts
Management Cable Specifications for ACX7348 Routers
Table 1 lists the specifications for the cables that connect the console and management ports to management devices.
Ports | Cable Specifications | Receptacle | Additional Information |
---|---|---|---|
Console (CON) port | RS-232 (EIA-232) serial cable | RJ-45 | |
Management (MGMT) port | Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 connector | RJ-45 | Connect an ACX7348 Router to a Network for Out-of-Band Management |
Management Port Connector Pinout Information for ACX7348 Routers
The management port—labeled MGMT—on an ACX7348 uses an RJ-45 connector to connect to a management device for out-of-band management.
The port uses an autosensing RJ-45 connector to support a 10/100BASE-T connection.
Table 2 provides the pinout information for the RJ-45 connector for the management port.
Pin | Description | Direction |
---|---|---|
1 | TRP1+ | Transmit/receive data pair 1. |
2 | TRP1– | Transmit/receive data pair 1. |
3 | TRP2+ | Transmit/receive data pair 2. |
4 | TRP3+ | Transmit/receive data pair 3. |
5 | TRP3– | Transmit/receive data pair 3. |
6 | TRP2– | Transmit/receive data pair 2. |
7 | TRP4+ | Transmit/receive data pair 4. |
8 | TRP4– | Transmit/receive data pair 4. |
Console Port Connector Pinout on ACX7348 Routers
The port labeled CON on the front panel is an RS-232 serial interface that uses an RJ-45 connector to connect to a console management device. The default baud rate for the console port is 9600 baud.
Use a cable with the pinouts described in Table 3 to connect an ACX7348 to a console management device.
If your laptop or PC does not have a DB-9 plug connector pin and you want to connect your laptop or PC directly to an ACX7348, use a combination of the RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter and a USB to DB-9 plug adapter.
