This appendix describes pinout information for 10/100/1000BaseT, console, and RJ 45 to DB 9 ports, and the MGMT 10/100 Ethernet port. It contains the following topics:
10/100BaseT and 10/100/1000BaseT Connectors
The ASA 5585-Xappliance supports 10/100/1000BaseT ports. You must use at least a Category 5 cable for 100/1000Base-TX operations. You can use a Category 3 cable for 10Base-TX operations.
Figure F-1 shows the 10/100BaseT (RJ-45) port pinouts.

Figure F-2 shows the 10/100/1000BaseT (RJ-45) port pinouts.

Console Port (RJ-45)
Figure F-3 shows the RJ 45 cable.
Figure F-3 RJ-45 Cable
To identify the RJ-45 cable type, hold the two ends of the cable next to each other so that you can see the colored wires inside the ends, as shown in Figure F-4.
Figure F-4 RJ-45 Cable Identification
Examine the sequence of colored wires to determine the type of RJ-45 cable, as follows:
- Straight-through—The colored wires are in the same sequence at both ends of the cable.
- Cross-over—The first (far left) colored wire at one end of the cable is the third colored wire at the other end of the cable.
- Roll-over—The colored wires are in the opposite sequence at either end of the cable.
Table F-1 lists the roll-over (console) cable pinouts for RJ-45.
