Description

This Cisco octal async fanout cable has a 68-pin SCSI-II connector on one end that breaks out to eight RJ-45 rolled async connectors on the other. It is used with NM-16A and NM-32A async network modules in 2600 and 3600 Series routers to connect to the console or Aux ports of other devices. The 10 ft length with rolled (console) pinout suits out-of-band management and terminal server deployments.

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

- Rolled cable, so it can connect directly to RJ-45 console ports without an extra rolled cable
- Can connect to DB-25 devices through RJ-45 to DB-25 modular adapters
- Reach can be extended with a straight-through RJ-45 cable
- Supports 134 kbps async on all ports simultaneously when used with NM-16A/NM-32A modules

FAQs

Q: Which modules does this cable work with?
A: It is designed for the NM-16A and NM-32A high-density async network modules used in 2600 and 3600 Series routers.

Q: Do I need a separate rolled cable to reach console ports?
A: No. The RJ-45 ends use a rolled pinout, so they can connect directly to RJ-45 console ports.

Q: Can I connect devices with DB-25 console ports?
A: Yes, by using RJ-45 to DB-25 modular adapters on the RJ-45 ends.

Q: Can I extend the reach beyond 10 ft?
A: Yes. A straight-through RJ-45 cable can be added to each RJ-45 end to extend the distance.

Q: How many devices can one cable connect to?
A: Each cable provides eight RJ-45 rolled async ports, so one 68-pin connector can serve up to eight console or Aux connections.
