Port Module to Device Cabling

RJ-45 Connectors

SST port modules contain 10-wire RJ-45 connectors, to which you can connect to a wide variety of 
modular adapters (DB-25, DB-9, DTE and DCE) using 10-wire modular serial cables.

All serial ports provide a standard RS-232 interface with full modem control signals.

To help wire the serial ports, Avocent sells a complete set of cabling accessories. Refer to 

SST-64P 

PCI Adapter Part Numbers

 on page 3.

Port Module Port Pinouts

The port module provides standard RS-232 DTE signals on all modular jacks (10-pin). Each 
modular jack accomodates one serial device, see Figure 3.1.

Figure 3.1: Port Module Connector Pinouts

See Figure 3.2 for the RJ-45 jack pinouts.
