Cabling requirements
Describes the cable requirements of the TippingPoint 2500N/5100N/6100N devices.
The TippingPoint 2500N/5100N/6100N ships with the following cables:
• Two AC power cables, one for each hot-swappable power supply
• Null modem cable for the serial console management port (DB-9 to RJ-45)
You can also receive a Right Angle IEC Receptacle power cord for the device. You can use this cable for
connecting power to the device in cases where you might not have enough room for a straight power
connection cable. This cable helps in situations when you need to install a device in a tight rack with a door.
The 90-degree bend in the female end of the cable prevents the cord from being pinched between the
device and the door.
