NOTE:
•
The MSR 30-1X do not support RPS.
•
The MSR 30-16 PoE model and the MSR 30-20 use a label to cover the RPS power interface, while the
MSR 30-40 and MSR 30-60 use a protective barrier to cover it. Both methods can effectively protect the
RPS power interface.

Console cable
Console cable is an eight-wire shielded cable. At one end of the cable is a crimped RJ-45 connector to
the console port on the router; at the other end of the cable is a DB-9 (female) connector to the serial port
on the console terminal.
The following figure illustrates the console cable.
