SFP Module Cables
Each port must match the wave-length specifications on each end of the cable, and for reliable communications, the
cable must not exceed the allowable length.

Console Port Adapter Pinouts
The console port uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector. If you did not order a console cable, you need to provide an
RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable to connect the switch console port to a PC console port. You need to provide an
RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter if you want to connect the switch console port to a terminal. You can order an
adapter (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=).
Table 11 on page 56
lists the pinouts for the console port, the RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable, and the console device.
