Console Port Connector Pinout Information for an EX Series Switch

The console port on an EX Series switch 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.

Table 29 on page 58 provides the pinout information for the RJ-45 console connector.
An RJ-45 cable and an RJ-45 to DB-9 serial port adapter are supplied with the switch.

NOTE: If your laptop or PC does not have a DB-9 male connector pin and you want to
connect your laptop or PC directly to an EX Series switch, use a combination of the
RJ-45 to DB-9 female adapter supplied with the switch and a USB to DB-9 male adapter.
You must provide the USB to DB-9 male adapter.
