StarTech ROLLOVERMM6 Cisco Console Rollover Cable
Overview
The StarTech ROLLOVERMM6 is a 6-foot (1.8 m) Cisco console rollover cable designed to establish a direct serial connection between your computer and network device's console port. This cable is essential for initial device configuration, troubleshooting, or out-of-band management when network access is unavailable. Its specific pinout allows a standard computer serial port (or USB-to-serial adapter) to communicate with the console port on Cisco routers, switches, and firewalls.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered for direct serial console access to network infrastructure devices that feature an RJ-45 console port. It is commonly used with Cisco networking equipment, including routers, switches, firewalls, and access points. It functions by 'rolling over' the transmit and receive signals, enabling communication from a PC's terminal emulation software (like PuTTY or Tera Term) to the device's command-line interface.
Installation Notes
The cable features standard RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The blue PVC jacket provides flexibility and durability for typical rack-mount or desktop deployments. The 26 AWG wire gauge ensures reliable signal integrity over the 6-foot length for console communication.
