Connecting an OCX1100 Switch to a Management Console by Using the Mini-USB
Type-B Console Port
You can configure and manage OCX1100 switches by using the RJ-45 console port or the
Mini-USB Type-B console port. However, the console input will be active only on one
port at a time—only one port will be set active at a time.
By default, the RJ-45 port is set as an active console port and the Mini-USB Type-B port
is the passive console port. For information about configuring the console port type, see
Configuring the Console Port Type (CLI Procedure) .
If your laptop or PC does not have a DB-9 male connector pin or RJ-45 connector pin,
you can connect your laptop or PC directly to an OCX1100 switch by using a mini-USB
cable that has a Standard-A USB connector on one end and a Mini-USB Type-B (5 pin)
connector on the other end.
This section describes the process of connecting an OCX1100 switch to the management
console by using the Mini-USB Type-B console port.
