Connecting the Console Terminal and Modem
Use the console terminal for local administrative access to the Cisco AS5400XM universal gateway. You
can only connect a terminal to the console port. You can use the auxiliary port to connect a terminal or
a modem for remote access.
Connecting to the Console Port
To connect a terminal (an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software) to the console
port, follow these steps:
Step 1
Connect the terminal using an RJ-45 rollover cable and an RJ-45-to-DB-25 or RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter.
The adapters provided are labeled TERMINAL. Other types of adapters are not included. (See
