The signal pinout for the RJ-45 connector of a serial console cable varies by vendor. To avoid
abnormal configuration terminal display, use a serial console cable provided by H3C. For more
information, see Table3-2. To prepare a serial console cable yourself, make sure the signal pinout for
the RJ-45 connector is the same as that shown in Table3-3.
