Dell EqualLogic PS-M4110 Installation Guide Chapter 4 Configuring the Array
The serial cable shipped with the array is a standard null-modem cable with a female DB9 connector on each
end. You might have to make or buy an adapter cable (one DB9 connector and one RJ45 connector) to connect
the array to some terminal server models. See
Serial Cable Pinout Information on page 39 for more information.
Attach the serial cable between a console terminal, or a computer running a terminal emulator, and the serial
port on the front of the PS-M4110. See
Figure 19 .
The serial connection must have the following characteristics:
•
9600 baud
•
One STOP bit
•
No parity
•
8 data bits
•
No flow control
Note: After setup, keep track of the serial cable. If the network ever fails and you need access to the array, you
can use a serial connection to manage the group or an array directly.
