The console port is an asynchronous RS-232 serial port with an RJ-45 connector. You can use the RJ-45 to RJ-45 rollover cable and the RJ-45 to DB-9 female adapter or the RJ-45 to DB-25 female DTE adapter (depending on your computer serial port) to connect the console port to a computer running terminal emulation software.
Table 1-1 lists the pinouts for the console port on the Cisco MDS 9148S Switch.

A separate power cord is provided for each power supply. Standard power cords or jumper power cords are available for connection to a power distribution unit having IEC 60320 C13 outlet receptacles. The jumper power cords, for use in cabinets, are available as an option instead of the standard power cords.
The standard power cords have an IEC C15 connector on the end that plugs into the switch. The optional jumper power cords have an IEC C15 connector on the end that plugs into the switch, and an IEC C14 connector on the end that plugs into an IEC C13 outlet receptacle.
Note Only the standard power cords or jumper power cords provided with the switch are supported.
Note If you do not order the optional power cord with the system, you are responsible for selecting the appropriate power cord for the product. Using a non-compatible power cord with this product may result in electrical safety hazard. Orders delivered to Argentina, Brazil, and Japan must have the appropriate power cord ordered with the system.
Table 1-5 shows the supported plugs for the Cisco MDS 9100 Series power supplies.
