Identifying a Rollover Cable
You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the two modular ends of the cable. Holding the cables
side-by-side, with the tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should
be the same color as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug. (See Figure C-1.) If
your cable was purchased from Cisco Systems, pin 1 will be white on one connector, and pin 8 will be
white on the other connector (a rollover cable reverses pins 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5).

Console Port Cables and Pinouts
Use the RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable and RJ-45-to-DB-9 female DTE adapter (labeled TERMINAL) to
connect the console port to a PC running terminal emulation software. Figure C-2 shows how to connect
the console port to a PC. Table C-1 lists the pinouts for the asynchronous serial console port, the
RJ-45-to-RJ-45 rollover cable, and the RJ-45-to-DB-9 female DTE adapter (labeled TERMINAL).
