Communications Connections
The communication connections allow user control of the SyncServer S6x0. The
EIA-232 serial port and Ethernet port 1 (LAN1) are located on the rear panel are
shown in
Figure 1-5 .
Ethernet Port 1
Ethernet port 1 is a standard 100/1000 Base-T shielded RJ-45 receptacle on the
rear panel of the unit. It is used to provide connectivity to a web interface and to an
Ethernet local area network (as well as for NTP input/output). To connect the
SyncServer S6x0 to an Ethernet network, use an Ethernet RJ-45 cable. See
Table
2-2 for connector pinouts.
Serial (Console) Port
The serial port connection is made through a DB-9 female connector on the rear
panel of the unit. This port, which supports a baud rate of 115.2k (115200-8-1-N-1),
allows you to connect to a terminal or computer using a terminal emulation software
package for remote monitoring and control. This port is also used for serial data
(NENA ASCII time code, Response mode). When connecting to this port, use a
shielded serial direct connect cable.
