Depending on the Cisco Systems communication server in use, your cabling
requirements may vary. Cisco communication servers handle multiple device
interfaces, and the communication server platforms provide a number of methods
to connect serial devices, including RJ-45, DB-9, and DB-25 connectors. To
connect a Cisco communication server to the CSS Console port, review the
communication server connections listed below and use the recommended cables:

A multi-pin D-type connector attached to an octal serial cable (also known as
an “octopus” cable or breakout cable) provides a rollover DTE connection.
For this connection, make an adapter cable using the connector pinouts
