The PAC-4010 system contains several serial interfaces listed below:
COM1 (mini-USB) on the front panel (links to ShMC)
COM2 (RJ45) on the front panel (links to LMP)
Serial-over-LAN, SOL (via I/O or Ethernet interface links to LMP, blades’ console
ports)
3.4.1 COM1 (mini-USB)
The PAC-4010 uses a USB-to-UART bridge called CP2102-GM from Silicon Labs
®
to
convert data traffic between USB and UART formats. This chip includes a complete
USB 2.0 full-speed function controller, bridge control logic, and a UART interface with
transmit/receive buffers and modem handshake signals.
For a terminal PC to connect to the console function on the PAC-4010 with a mini-USB
to USB cable, the CP2102 driver is available for download from Silicon Labs
®
website
(hyperlink below), and must be installed on the terminal PC.
The mini-USB port is bus powered (i.e. powered by the terminal PC) and the COM port
will not be lost when power cycling the blade or Packetarium system.
