IntroductionThis document summarizes the cabling requirements for console and auxiliary (AUX) ports. Cisco routers either have RJ-45-based or DB-25 DCE/DTE console and AUX ports. You can connect either a terminal (DTE) or a modem (DCE) to these ports. In either instance, you need both an RJ-45 cable and an RJ-45-to-DB-25 or RJ-45-to-DB-9 connector.PrerequisitesRequirementsThere are no specific requirements for this document.Components UsedThis document is not restricted to specific software and hardware versions.ConventionsRefer to Cisco Technical Tips Conventions for more information on document conventions.Table of Routers with Console and AUX PortsThe table in this section lists the Cisco router series and the corresponding console and AUX ports.Console Port Settings for Terminal ConnectionBefore you connect a terminal to the console port, configure the terminal to match the router console port as shown here:9600 baud 8 data bits no parity 2 stop bits (9600 8N2) OR 1 stop bit¹ ¹Dependant on the router. Types of Console and AUX ConnectorsCisco routers have three types of console and AUX connectors. The table in this section lists these types:RJ-45 DB-25 DCE DB-25 DTE There are three styles of RJ-45-to-DB-25 connectors: DCE style (modem) DTE style DCE style (non modem) Each of these styles has a different role. Generally, DTE is for terminals, DCE (modem) is for modems, and DCE (non-modem) is obsolete. Note: Move pin 6 to pin 8 if you want to change a DCE style (non modem) to a DCE style (modem).

RJ-45 Cables RS 232 Straight-through Cable Types of RJ-45 CablingCisco products use these types of RJ-45 cables:Straight-through Crossover Rolled RJ-45 to DB9 female Cisco does not provide these cables. These cables are widely available from other sources. Console cable is usually provided with the Console Cable Kit. Note: The console port does not support modem control or hardware flow control. How to Identify an RJ-45 CableIn order to identify the RJ-45 cable type, hold the two ends of the cable next to one another so you can see the colored wires inside the ends, as shown here:There are three types of commonly used RJ-45 cabling: straight, cross and rolled. Hold the two ends of an RJ-45 cable side by side. There are eight colored strips, or pins, at each end. If the order of the colored pins is the same at each end, the cable is straight. If the order of the colors is reversed at each end, the cable is rolled. Examine the sequence of colored wires to determine the type of RJ-45 cable. This section explains how you can do this. Straight-through CableIn a straight-through cable, the colored wires are in the same sequence at both ends of the cable.Straight-through Cable RJ-45 Straight-through (Ethernet) Cable Pin-outs
Crossover CableIn a crossover cable, the first (far left) colored wire at one end of the cable is the third colored wire at the other end of the cable.Crossover Cable RJ-45 Crossover (Ethernet) Cable Pin-outs
Rolled CableIn a rolled cable, the colored wires at one end of the cable are in the reverse sequence of the colored wires at the other end of the cable.Rolled Cable Rolled Cable Pinouts
RJ-45 to DB-9 Female*This cable is also known as Management Cable. *Cisco provides this cable with the 600, 800, 1600 and 1700 Series Routers. Type of Cable for DB-25 ConnectorsRS 232 Straight-through CableThis illustration shows serial cable CAB-R23= (part number 74-0173), which is a general serial cable for all router platforms: Both Ends of RS 232 Straight-through Cable for DB-25 Connectors This cable has a female DB-25 connector on one end and a male DB-25 connector on the other end. Either end of the CAB-R23 cable can be the Cisco end or the network end, depending on whether the Cisco router is designated as a DCE device or a DTE device. If the router is designated as a DCE device, the female DB-25 connector is the Cisco end. If the router is designated as a DTE device, the male DB-25 connector is the Cisco end.

AdaptersYou need two types of adapters to connect a PC to a router.RJ-45-to-DB-9 Adapter RJ-45-to-DB-25 Adapter RJ-45-to-DB-9 AdapterThis adapter connects a router to a PC though a COM port.RJ-45-to-DB-9 Adapter RJ-45-to-DB-25 AdapterThis adapter connects a router to PC through a serial port.RJ-45-to-DB-25 Adapter Cabling and Adapter Setups that WorkHere are the most common ways to console into a router.Console Connection Combination
You cannot mix and match these components randomly. Here are the combinations that work: Console Connection Combination

Console Cable KitA console cable kit is provided with your router. Use this kit when you connect your router to a PC or a terminal.The console cable kit contains these items: RJ-45-to-RJ-45 console cable (blue) RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter (gray) RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter (gray) Note: The Cisco 7200 Series and Cisco 7301 are not shipped by default with a console cable kit. If a console cable is required, order an accessory kit (part number: ACS-2500ASYN).
