Serial port pinout and use
The RS232 standard requires support for baud rates up to 9600 baud on shielded multicore cable up
to 50 feet (15 meters) long. For the 635x-SR, the use of standard CAT 5 cables enables serial
communication at all baud rates up to 50 feet. CAT5 unshielded twisted pair cable lengths much
longer than 50 feet have been verified at 9600 baud but are non-standard and are not guaranteed.
The Digi 6350-SR/6355-SR RS232 serial port is DTE and has the following pin configuration.

The serial ports use a female RJ45 jack to enable connection using UTP Ethernet cabling.
Wiring for remote access
The serial port of the Digi 6350-SR/6355-SR has the same pinout as most common router console
ports. Therefore, it is recommended to use a rollover Ethernet cable if the Digi 6350-SR/6355-SR serial
mode is set to
Remote access
, since the pins have to be reversed in order to provide remote access
into a secondary router's console port.
