Connecting the Console
Warning
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity. 
Statement 1001
Your Cisco ADE 2130 and 2140 Series appliance has an RJ-45 serial (console) port on the front or back 
of the appliance for connecting a console terminal to your appliance. Only one serial (console) port can 
be used at a time because they are shared. (See the 
information.)
To connect a terminal or a PC running terminal-emulation software to the console port on the Cisco ADE 
2130 and 2140 Series appliance:
Step 1
Connect the terminal using a rollover cable (provided) to the console port. For cable pinouts, see the 
Step 2
Configure your terminal or terminal-emulation software for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, 
and no hardware flow control. 
Cable Management
Cable management is the most visual aspect of your appliance setup. However, cable management is 
often overlooked because it can be time consuming.
Equipment racks and enclosures house more equipment today than ever before. This growth has 
increased the need for organized cable management both inside and outside the rack. Poor cable 
management not only leads to damaged cables or increased time for adding or changing out cables, but 
also blocks critical airflow or access. These problems can lead to inefficiencies in the performance of 
your equipment or even downtime. 
There are many solutions to address cable management. They can range from simple cable management 
rings, to cable management brackets, to vertical or horizontal organizers, to troughs and ladders.
All Cisco ADE 2130 and 2140 Series appliance cables should be properly dressed so as not to interfere 
with each other or other pieces of equipment. Use local practices to ensure that the cables attached to 
your appliance are properly dressed.
