Comm Port
The Comm Port (also referred to as the Console/Comm Port) allows you to access 
the console interface (CI) screens and customize your network using the supplied 
menus and screens (see Chapter 3, “Using the Console Interface”).
The Console/Comm Port is a DB-9, RS-232-D male serial port connector. You can 
use this connector to connect a management station or console/terminal to the 
switch by using a straight-through DB-9 to DB-9 standard serial port cable (see 
“Console/Comm Port” on page 2-10).
The console port default settings are: 9600 baud with 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no 
parity as the communications format, with Flow control set to Xon/Xoff.
Uplink/Expansion Module Slot
The Uplink/Expansion Module slot allows you to attach optional media dependent 
adapters (MDAs) that support a range of media types (see Appendix C, “Media 
Dependent Adapters” for
 more information about MDA types available from 
Nortel Networks).
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ports
Your BayStack 450-24T and BayStack 450-12T switches use
 
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX RJ-45 (8-pin modular) port connectors.
Note: 
The Console/Comm Port is configured as a data communications 
equipment (DCE) connector. Ensure that your RS-232 cable pinouts are 
configured for DCE connections (see “DB-9 (RS-232-D) Console/Comm Port 
Connector
” on page F-5).
Note: 
The RJ-45 port connectors on BayStack 450 switches manufactured 
prior to December 1998 are numbered 1 to 12 and 13 to 24, in succession from 
left to right. Later units use port connectors that are configured with one or two 
dual, six-port groups, numbered 1 to 12 and 13 to 24. The top rows are odd 
numbered and the bottom rows are even numbered (see Figure 1-2 on 
page 1-3). Port-specific examples in this guide show the appropriate port 
connections when required; other examples apply to both versions.
