If the pinouts for the serial management port do not correspond with the pinouts
for the RJ-45 ports on the terminal server, you must make a crossover cable that
connects each pin on the SPARC Enterprise T5140 or T5240 server serial
management port to the corresponding pin in the terminal server’s serial port.
TABLE 1-2 shows the crossovers that the cable must perform.
