Vera Serial Interface Connector

Hi Anthony,could you be more specific on what type of cable you're using.Normally if you use the console port it doesn't matter whether you're using the blue cable (RJ45 to RS232) or a standard ethernet cable with the cisco provided RJ45 to RS232 adapter. The settings in Putty should be the same. Normally it works with default settings an 9600bps.If you're using the management port (RJ45 as well) you need to set an IP address first and then telnet into your router. Set the IP address via console or express setup.I hope that helps.Regards,Markus. There is no way you can connect the console to the ethernet port. It is not the same type of signal. The console port is always a serial connection.The rollover cable (blue) can be used with an adapter RJ45 to Serial.

This is normally shipped with the console kit.So from my point of view you have following options to connect to the device:. Use a console cable (blue) with either RJ45 / Serial connectors or a RJ45 / RJ45 rollover with Adapter. Both require a serial port on the notebook or a USB to serial Adapter. Some devices allow you to connect to a USB console. So you just require a USB / USB cable. Use the Mgmt.

Port (not Console). This requires an IP address to be configured on that interface first. You do that bei either doing trough console or use Cisco Express Setup.Regards,Markus.

CablesAfter you install the serial WIC, use the appropriate serial cable to connect the WIC’s serial port to one of the following types of equipment. (See.):. An asynchronous modem, if connecting to an analog telephone line. A synchronous modem, DSU or CSU, or other DCE, if connecting to a digital WAN lineThe 1-port serial WIC has a DB-60 serial port, whereas the 2-port serial WIC and the 2-port A/S WIC have Cisco smart serial ports. Use the correct cable for your serial WIC.The serial cable attached to a smart serial port determines the port’s electrical interface type and mode (DTE or DCE). Types of Cables for 1- and 2-Port Serial WICsSix types of serial cables (also called serial adapter cables or serial transition cables ) are available from Cisco Systems for 1- and 2-port serial WICs:.

EIA/TIA-232 serial cable assembly. EIA/TIA-449 serial cable assembly. V.35 serial cable assembly. X.21 serial cable assembly.

EIA/TIA-530 serial cable assembly. EIA/TIA-530A serial cable assemblyAll serial cables provide a universal plug at the interface card end. The network end of each cable provides the physical connectors most commonly used for the interface. For example, the network end of the EIA/TIA-232 serial cable is a DB-25 connector, the most widely used EIA/TIA-232 connector.All serial interface types except EIA-530 are available in DTE or DCE format: DTE with a plug connector at the network end and DCE with a receptacle at the network end. V.35 is available in either mode with either gender at the network end.

EIA-530 is available in DTE only. LED StatusDue to the high port density on the HWIC front panels, the amount of LED status per port is limited. There is no room for individual LEDs to indicate transmit or receive activity, or clock status.HWIC-4T and HWIC-4A/S have a single bi-color LED to monitor status over four ports. HWIC-8A has a single LED to monitor status over 8 ports.

There are two LEDs on the HWIC-8A/S-RS232 that monitor 4 ports each. On the HWIC-16A, two LEDs monitor 8 ports each.See for the definition of HWIC LED Status. CablesAfter you install the serial HWIC, use the appropriate serial cable to connect the HWIC ports to the following types of equipment:. Asynchronous modems, if connecting to analog telephone lines. Synchronous modems, data service units/channel service units (DSUs/CSUs), or other DCEs, if connecting to digital WAN linesThe 4-port serial HWICs have 26-pin 12-in-1 Cisco smart serial ports, whereas the 8- and 16-port serial HWICs have 68-pin serial ports. Use the correct cable for your serial HWIC.

Cables for 4-Port Serial HWICsThe 4-port serial HWICs use Cisco smart serial cables. Six types of smart serial cables are available:. EIA/TIA-232 serial cable assembly.

EIA/TIA-449 serial cable assembly. V.35 serial cable assembly. X.21 serial cable assembly. EIA-530 serial cable assembly. EIA-530A serial cable assemblyAll of these serial cables provide a 26-pin plug at the interface card end. The network end of each cable provides the physical connectors most commonly used for the interface.

For example, the network end of the EIA/TIA-232 serial cable is a DB-25 connector, the most widely used EIA/TIA-232 connector.See for network end connectors and pinouts of these cables.The EIA-530 and EIA-530A serial cables are available in DTE format only. All other cables are available in either DTE or DCE format. Related DocumentationRelated documentation is available on Cisco.com or on the Product Documentation DVD.
