The Console interface (CONFIG) on the front panel of 3101RC card is the main control interface of the

Model 3101RC. The RJ45 connector pin assignment follows the EIA-561 signal type used in RS-232 inter-

face, and the Model 3101 is a DCE Device. The following ﬁgure illustrated the DTE relative pin assignments

in RJ45 connector:

Figure 7. Console Port RJ-45 pin assignment

To connect the host PC to the console port, a RJ45 (male) connector-to-RS232 DB9 (female) connector cable

is required. The RJ45 connector of the cable is connected to the COM port of the DSLAM; the DB9 connec-

tor of the cable is connected to the PC COM port. The DTE relative pin assignment of the console cable is

shown below:
