Connecting a Modem to the Console Port

Procedure

To connect a modem to the CONSOLE port:

1. Determine and procure the proper DCE cable type for your modem. The

CONSOLE port requires a DB9 plug connector. The other connector depends
on the serial port on your modem, but normally a DB25 plug is required. The
cable must be an EIA-232-E crossover (null modem) cable.

2. Connect the DB9 plug connector to the CONSOLE port socket.

3. If the modem will be permanently connected, fasten the connector to the

Management Module with its captive screws. If the BitStorm 4800 Express is
in a rack, dress the cable to the left and attach it to the rail with a cable tie.

4. Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port of your modem.
