10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Ports

There are four 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45) ports. Gigabit Ethernet uses all eight wires and each
pair is used in a bi-directional fashion, meaning the same pairs are used for both data transmission and reception.

Serial Console Port

A serial console port is provided for connection to a terminal, allowing for direct local management. The port's
RJ-45 female connector accepts an RS-232 serial cable with a male connector.

Communication settings for the serial console port are indicated in

Caution: Do not connect an Access Point (AP) to the serial console port. The serial console port is compatible with only RS-232
devices. Non-RS-232 devices, such as APs, are not supported.

Serial Console Port Adaptor

A modular adaptor can be used to convert the RJ-45 (female) connector to a DB9 (male) connector. Refer to
