Connecting to an IBM PC or Compatible Device
ToconnectanIBMPCorcompatibledevice,runningtheVTterminalemulation,toan
Enterasys NetworksmoduleCOMport(Figure 3‐9),proceedasfollows:
1. ConnecttheRJ45connectoratoneendofaUTPstraight‐throughcabletothecommunications
COMportontheEnterasys Networksmodule.(TheCOMportis
alsoknownasaConsole
port.)
2. PlugtheRJ45connectorattheotherendoftheUTPstraight‐throughcableintoanRJ45‐to‐
