2.2 CONSOLE CABLE CONFIGURATION
A single female DB-9 receptacle provides a Console interface to the
management terminal. Depending on your specific terminal, one of two
cable configurations (9 pin to 25 pin or 9 pin to 9 pin) is used for the
connection to the MRXI Console port. Figure 2-2 shows the pinout for
both cables.
Figure 2-2. Console Cable Pinouts

1. Attach the male 9-pin connector to the CONSOLE port on the rear
of the MRXI.
2. Attach the female end (25-pin or 9-pin, as applicable) to the COMM
port on the terminal.
