The rackmount console servers also have a DB9 LOCAL (Console/Modem) port on front panel. The
LES1508A has a DB9 LOCAL (Console/Modem) port on rear panel. With the LES1508A, Serial Port 1 is
configured by default in Local Console (modem) mode.
Conventional CAT5 cabling with RJ-45 jacks is used for serial connections. Before connecting an external
device’s console port to the console server serial port, confirm that the device supports the standard
RS-232C (EIA-232).
