Cabling Specifications

Cabling Specifications

This appendix lists the following port pinouts on the supervisor engine modules. Note that any pin not specifically listed is not connected.

Supervisor Engines I and II Console Port

The CONSOLE port on Supervisor Engines I and II is an EIA/TIA-232, data communications equipment (DCE), DB-25 receptacle. Both data set ready (DSR) and data carrier detect (DCD) are active when the system is running. The Request To Send (RTS) signal tracks the state of the Clear To Send (CTS) input. The CONSOLE port does not support modem control or hardware flow control. Table B-1 lists the CONSOLE port pinouts.


Table B-1: CONSOLE Port Pinouts
Pin Signal Direction Description
1 GND Ground
2 RxD --> Receive data
3 TxD <-- Transmit data
4 CTS <-- Clear to send
5 RTS --> Return to send
7 GND Ground
8 DTR --> Data terminal ready
20 DCD <-- Data carrier detect

Supervisor Engine III Console and Auxiliary Ports


Note The Supervisor Engine III auxiliary (AUX) port is currently not supported.

You can connect the Supervisor Engine III CONSOLE port to an ASCII terminal or PC running terminal emulation software. Table B-2 lists the pinouts for the asynchronous serial CONSOLE port. In addition to the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cable provided in the Console Port accessory kit (shipped with your Catalyst 5000 series switch), you will need either an RJ-45-to-DB-9, RJ-45-to-D-subminiature female, or RJ-45-to-D-subminiature male adapter (these adapters are provided in the accessory kit).

8 NC No connection

100BaseFX Ports

This section illustrates the supervisor engine 100BaseFX port cable connector.

You can use SC-type fiber-optic connectors to connect to the Fast Ethernet single-mode and multimode fiber-optic ports (see Figure B-1).
