Your router comes with a console cable that you need to connect a console terminal (an VT100 terminal or PC running terminal emulation software) to your router. Different router comes with different console cable. The console cable includes:

• RJ45-to-DB25 cable
• DB9-to-DB25 cable
• RJ45-to-Mac-Mini-Din-8 cable
• DB9-to-Mac-Mini-Din-8 cable

Straight Cable

The Prestige router comes with two LAN cables, one is RJ45-to-RJ45 straight cable with white tag, and the other is crossover RJ45-to-RJ45 cable with red tag. Use the straight RJ45-to-RJ45 cable to connect a PC to the 4-port HUB of Prestige. Table F-2 lists the pinouts for the straight RJ45-to-RJ45 cable.

Crossover Cable

A crossover cable reverses the transmit and receive pairs at the two ends of the RJ45 connectors. When linking the Prestige HUB router to another HUB you need the crossover RJ45-to-RJ45 cable. Figure F-1 shows how to connect the Prestige HUB router to a HUB and a PC. Table F-3 lists the pinouts for the crossover RJ45-to-RJ45 cable.
