Connecting the Console Port to a Computer Using the DB-25 Adapter
You can use the RJ-45 rollover cable and RJ-45/DSUB F/F adapter (labeled "Terminal") to connect the console port to a computer running terminal emulation software. Table C-2 lists the pinouts for the console port, the RJ-45 rollover cable, and the RJ-45/DSUB F/F adapter.
Connecting the Console Port to a Computer Using the DB-9 Adapter
You can use the RJ-45 rollover cable and DB-9F/RJ-45F PC terminal (labeled "Terminal") to connect the console port to a computer running terminal emulation software. Table C-3 lists the pinouts for the console port, the RJ-45 rollover cable, and the DB-9F/RJ-45F PC terminal.
COM1 Port
The COM1 port is a serial port with a DB-9 connector. The COM1 port can be connected to a modem using the cable and adapters provided in the accessory kit.
COM1 Port Pinouts
Table C-4 lists the pinouts for the COM1 port on the Cisco MDS 9500 Series.
Note
Connecting the COM1 Port to a Modem
You can use the DB-9F/RJ-45F PC terminal (labeled "Terminal") to connect to the COM1 port, and the RJ-45/DSUB R/P adapter (labeled "Modem") to connect to the modem. You can use the RJ-45 rollover cable to connect these adapters.
Table C-5 lists the pinouts for the COM1 port, the DB-9F/RJ-45F PC terminal, RJ-45 rollover cable, and the RJ-45/DSUB R/P adapter.
MGMT 10/100/1000 Ethernet Port
The MGMT 10/100/1000 Ethernet port is an Ethernet port with an RJ-45 connector. You can use a modular, RJ-45, straight-through UTP cable to connect the management port to an external hub, switch, or router (see Figure C-1).

Supported Power Cords and Plugs
Each power supply has a separate power cord. Standard power cords or jumper power cords are available for connection to a power distribution unit having IEC 60320 C19 outlet receptacles. The jumper power cords, for use in cabinets, are available as an optional alternative to the standard power cords.
Power Cords
The standard power cords have an IEC C19 connector on the end that plugs into the switch. The optional jumper power cords have an IEC C19 connector on the end that plugs into the switch, and an IEC C20 connector on the end that plugs into an IEC C19 outlet receptacle.
Note
Table C-8 lists the power cords for the Cisco MDS 9200, 9100, and 9020 series of switches and provides their lengths in feet and meters.
Supported Plugs for 845-W AC and 300-W AC Power Supplies
Each power supply has a separate power cord. Standard power cords or jumper power cords are available for connection to a power distribution unit having IEC 60320 C15 outlet receptacles. The jumper power cords, for use in cabinets, are available as an optional alternative to the standard power cords.
Power Cords
The standard power cords have an IEC C15 connector on the end that plugs into the switch. The optional jumper power cords have an IEC C15 connector on the end that plugs into the switch, and an IEC C14 connector on the end that plugs into an IEC C13 outlet receptacle.
Figure C-5 shows the supported plugs for the Cisco MDS 9200 Series power supplies.
