Connect SSR120 to External Devices
Connect SSR120 to a Management Console
Ensure that you have an RJ-45 to DB-9 rollover cable available. An RJ-45 cable with an RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter is provided with the appliance.
If your laptop or PC does not have a DB-9 pin contact and you want to connect your laptop or PC directly to the SSR120, use a combination of the RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter supplied with the appliance and a USB to DB-9 plug adapter. You must provide the USB to DB-9 plug adapter.
SSR120 has a console port (CONSOLE) with an RJ-45 connector. Use the console port to connect the appliance to a management console or to a console server. The default baud rate of the console port is 115200 bps.
To connect the SSR120 to a management console (see Figure 1 and Figure 2):
- Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the console port (labeled CONSOLE).
- Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into the console server (see Figure 1) or management console (see Figure 2).
