Description

This console cable connects a PC USB port to the mini-USB console port on supported Cisco switches and routers. It is intended for out-of-band management, letting an engineer reach the device command line for initial setup, configuration changes and troubleshooting without relying on the network.

The cable has a USB Type-A connector at one end and a Mini-USB (Type B) connector at the other. It measures 6 ft (1.8 m), long enough to reach from a laptop to a device in a rack or comms cabinet. The USB-to-mini-USB design suits modern laptops that no longer have a serial port.

Enquire with XS Network Tech for new or used pricing and availability.
