RS-232 Console Port Connection
The VPort 464 has one RS-232 (10-pin RJ45) console port, located on the
top panel. Use either an RJ45-to-DB9 or RJ45-to-DB25 cable (see the
cable following wiring diagrams) to connect the VPort 464’s console port
to your PC’s COM port.
You may then use a console terminal program, such as the Moxa PComm
Terminal Emulator, to access the VPort 464’s console configuration utility.

10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
The 10/100/1000BaseT(X) port located on the VPort 464’s front panel is
used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices.
Pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X (HUB/Switch-type)
ports are illustrated below, along with cable wiring diagrams for
straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables.
The 10/100/1000BaseT(X) port of the VPort 464 is an MDI port, which
means that you should use a cross-over Ethernet cable to connect to the
MDI NIC port, and a straight-through Ethernet cable to connect to the
MDI-X HUB/Switch port.
